Viral Video Sparks Outrage Over ‘Alcohol’ Served Publicly at Pakistani Wedding

Viral Video Sparks Outrage Over 'Alcohol' Served Publicly at Pakistani Wedding

A video circulating on social media has drawn attention after showing a wedding reception where guests were being served alcohol. The footage shows one man carrying a carton, while another arranges liquor bottles on the tables.

The video was shared by Twitter user Fatima PTI, who has a large following. However, the authenticity of the video has not been independently verified. It remains unclear whether the footage is recent or from another location.

Social media users quickly reacted to the video. One person speculated, “Maybe it’s a Hindu or Christian family?” while another expressed disappointment, saying, “Such hospitality is regrettable.” The clip has sparked broader discussions about changing trends at weddings in Pakistan and the public’s perception of such practices.

In Pakistan, alcohol consumption is largely banned under the Prohibition (Enforcement of Hadd) Order, 1979. The law prohibits Muslims from producing, selling, possessing, or consuming alcohol. Violations carry severe penalties, including imprisonment and corporal punishment.

However, non-Muslim citizens are legally permitted limited access to alcohol for religious purposes through a special permit system. This exception allows communities to observe their cultural and religious traditions while following the law.

Experts say videos like this often ignite debates about morality, law, and cultural practices in Pakistan. While some view it as a violation of religious norms, others argue that minority communities have the right to their customs.

The viral clip highlights the tension between tradition, modernity, and legal boundaries in Pakistan. It also demonstrates how social media can amplify discussions on sensitive topics, creating national conversations almost instantly.
