Addressing the cadets, Maryam Nawaz reaffirmed her solidarity with them, stating, “I am one of you. I have come to the [passing out parade] ceremony wearing Elite Police uniform. This is not a uniform, but an emblem of national service very few people are honoured to have.”
In a special address to the female cadets, she acknowledged the trust bestowed upon them by their parents and their dedication to serving the nation.
This isn’t the first time Maryam Nawaz has made headlines for her attire at police events. Last month, she attended a passing-out ceremony for women constables and traffic assistants, once again adorned in Punjab police uniform, sparking discussions and garnering attention.
