A Pakistani YouTuber's song condemning girls' education has gone viral and has sparked outrage among social media users. The video was uploaded a few weeks back by YouTuber Hafiz Hasan Iqbal Chishti. In the clip, the man asked people to remove their daughters from school while pointing out that they dance there which is considered to be unacceptable by Islam. He titled his song 'Apni Dhi Schoolo Hata Le Othy Dance Kardi Payi Ae (Remove your daughter from school she was spotted dancing there)'.
The controversial song is laced with misogynistic lyrics. It suggests people remove their daughters from school and keep them at home unless they wish to make them prostitutes. In the video, the singer also claims that daughters who go to school lose their sanctity and respect.
The context being making the video also finds a mention. It shows footage of a dance competition that was organised in a school in Pakistan at the request of UNESCO. In response to this, the YouTuber released the song in June.
Since being shared, the video has accumulated nearly 300,000 views and over 3,000 likes. In the comments section, users condemned the lyrics and asked in which direction Pakistan was heading.
