That official was in an angry state that day, maybe his wife made him angry at home, and he decided to bring it to the office, and now seeing you on that causal even made him more angry.
Sorry about your experience that day. So how far have you gone for the clearance?
Possibly, he really was in a bad mood.
I am well past his stage now, though I am not done with the clearance because I am held at another stage but hopefully by next week I would be settled to complete it.
