So Rasheed is not just a social media icon now but is also a famous man in Peshawar where he has earned a lot of respect in his job. When he was asked about the strategy he uses to increase followers, he simplyreplied that “I don’t know. It just started happening.”He gets a really good response on Facebook and Khanstates that most people who comment on his posts really appreciatehis work and efforts as a traffic warden, which greatly encourages him to do better. But there are also some, he says, who leave negative comments like calling him a ‘publicity seeker” or a “wannabe” but he does not let that affect his work or his efforts in portraying a decent image of the Police force as a whole.

So I am sure you all are wondering how he has helped in raising the reputation of the Traffic Police, well Khan often records his conversations with the citizens of Peshawar using a hidden body camera which is officially provided to him by the Traffic Police, and posts the videos on his Facebook profile.
His recordings often include incidents with VIP citizens who violate the traffic rules; his own refusal to accept bribes and other instances where he engages with citizens. Going by his Facebook engagement, it seems his fans are eager to see influential people held accountable for violating traffic rules. Furthermore, He also posts videos and photos in which he shows various other wardens helping people on the roads, like changing vehicle tires for someone or helping the elderly cross the road, which show that the Police organizations here in Pakistan still have a lot of good people left and that sometimes our criticism is a little unjustified.
