Member National Assembly, Jamshed Dasti, who was elected as an independent member from the Punjab province, disclosed in national assembly that liquor worth Rs. 50 million per annum is being supplied to Parliament lodges located in Islamabad.   He also demanded for the drug tests to be carried out of all the parliamentarians. He further added that there is always a smell of marijuana in the lobbies of the Parliament lodges.

This unusual disclosure was made by Dasti while addressing the floor of the National Assembly. Dasti won the 2013 election beating  Hina Rabbani Khar, who was  the foreign minister in the previous government.

Accordingly to statistics of Election Commission of Pakistan, Jamshed is the poorest MNA in Pakistan.

    Jamshed dasti’s allegations were true, but he should have some evidences before claiming on parliament’s floor

    Liquor consumption should be allowed upto some extend and the sale and consumption of alcohol even western countries, where consuming alcohol is legal, the sale and consumption of alcohol is strictly regulated.

    In Canada, serving alcohol at public places without a permit carries a hefty fine. Driving under the influence of alcohol carries severe penalties, including fines up to $5,000 and six months of imprisonment. In the United States, it is illegal to serve alcohol to persons under 21 years of age.

    In 2012, 10,322 people were killed in traffic accidents caused by alcohol-impaired individuals in the United States alone. This accounts for almost one in three traffic-related deaths in the United States, where the police arrested over 1.2 million drivers in 2010 for operating vehicles under the influence of alcohol or other drugs.

    In 1995, the British Medical Association revealed that alcohol was a factor in 60-70 per cent of homicides, 75 per cent of stabbings, and 50 per cent of fights and domestic assaults.

    Dasti was elected as an independent member from Muzaffargarh district in southern Punjab in last year’s general election. In 2008, he was elected on a PPP ticket but later left the party, saying it was controlled by feudal lords and industrialists.

    A self-styled voice of the underdog, Dasti is considered the poorest lawmaker in a parliament dominated by the elite. Dasti does not own a house or a car and travels with commoners in public transport vehicles.

    It is also said he works as a part-time driver of a bus in his hometown. In his annual income returns submitted to the Election Commission, Dasti said he has only a bank account where his salary as a parliamentarian is deposited, and this is his sole source of income.
