Fiza Ali Defends Food Delivery Riders, Reminds Public of Their Humanity

Islamabad (Qudrat Daily) — Social media erupted after TV host **Nida Yasir** made controversial remarks about food delivery riders, claiming they often cause inconvenience, rarely have change, and try to earn extra money from customers. She also suggested that customers should always carry exact cash and that it is the rider’s responsibility if change is needed.
Actor **Fiza Ali** responded strongly, emphasizing the **human side of delivery riders**. She reminded the public that these workers brave darkness, extreme weather, traffic, and daily risks to deliver meals, often being the sole earners for their families. “We order expensive food, yet often forget to give them respect. They are someone’s sons, someone’s fathers, and deserve to be treated with dignity,” she said.
Fiza Ali highlighted that the biggest flaw in Nida Yasir’s statement was a **lack of empathy for the riders’ struggles**. Her remarks resonated widely on social media, with hundreds supporting her view, stating that tipping may not be mandatory, but respect and recognition are a matter of humanity.
The debate has sparked a broader reflection on society’s attitude toward those who provide daily convenience, questioning how much we appreciate the people behind our everyday services.
