Assistant Commissioner (AC) Pattoki, Furqan Khan, tragically lost his life while carrying out official duties in the flood-affected area of Head Balloki.
According to early reports, he was personally overseeing rescue and relief work in the severely hit region when the unfortunate incident took place. His presence on the ground reflected his sense of responsibility, as he chose to lead by example rather than from a distance.
Officials and colleagues have expressed deep sorrow over his passing, calling it a great loss not only for Pattoki but for the entire province.
They highlighted that Furqan Khan’s dedication to public service stood out, as he worked tirelessly to ensure the safety of flood victims despite the dangerous conditions. His sacrifice is being remembered as a symbol of true commitment to duty in one of Punjab’s most challenging times.
Rescue and relief operations, however, are still continuing in the region. Teams remain on high alert to assist displaced residents and minimize risks posed by the rising floodwaters. Authorities have assured that all possible measures are being taken to protect lives and provide necessary support to affected families.
Furqan Khan’s passing has left a void, but his courage and service will be remembered as an inspiration for others in public service. Many have called him a frontline hero, whose actions remind us of the sacrifices made by officials and rescue workers during natural disasters.
His legacy now stands as a reminder that true leadership lies in serving people, even in the most difficult of times.
