COVID-19 & Moral Corruption: PTI MNA Farrukh Habib caught in food rationing scandal
Faisalabad, 7th April: Amid the pandemic crisis in the country where people are trying to help each other to sustain in the severe conditions, a PTI MNA in Faisalabad is reported to have been conducting misdoings with the people.
According to reports of Baaghi TV, Farrukh Habib, a PTI member of National Assembly from NA 108 and a Parliamentary Secretary for Railways, has been alleged of doing fraud with the people in the name of distributing food rations at the time of crisis and lockdown. The people of Faisalabad are perturbed over such behaviour.
As reportedly, Farrukh Habib was supposed to distribute food rations among poor people, instead he started sending the needy to a woman named Memona Riaz to get their share.
The woman, who is an MPA, has shared a video message on social media about the misconduct carried out by the MNA and protested saying that if the Minister cannot take care of his people then he better resign from his post.

Memona Riaz has filed a complaint through her video about the unjust behaviour of Farrukh Habib, who has deliberately shared her number with the people and has been telling them to collect ration from her.
The angered woman holds the MNA responsible for intruding her privacy as she has been receiving the phone calls from the people after every half a minute. According to her if the MNA cannot handle the situation in the time of a pandemic then he should resign from his post and let the people take care of themselves.
Being an MNA of a city he is responsible to look after the people’s needs, rather than sending the needy to other people’s places to get their food packets.
Memona Riaz, being an MPA of Faisalabad has acclaimed to help many people within her reach and as per demand. The MNA is not justified to give out her private number to the public rather than solving the problem on his own.

Such kind of behaviour from a senior minister is not tolerable and should be condemned. There have been numerous complaints by the people of Faisalabad against Farrukh Habib, who is getting known for unhelpful attitude and gives out the number of other influential people instead of helping the needy himself.
On the other hand, Farrukh Habib has shared his mobile number on his Twitter handle, stating that the public office of the constituency in Faisalabad is closed due to the lockdown but he and his office personals are available through telephonic contact for any kind of help.
Baaghi TV tried contacting the member of the National Assembly for his comments on the subject but nobody received the call.
Baaghi TV sends out the message to stay safe and lend a helping hand around at this time of need.
