It’s heartbreaking to see rapidly rising trend of LGBTQ in Pakistan. Event like “scrapfest” being organized openly in Karachi is alarming. We all will be answerable before Allah. Raise your voice before it’s too late.
Govt needs to take action against it. #banscrapfest pic.twitter.com/Y2RvgREeFS— Sabahat Zahra (@SabahatZahra8) February 2, 2023
Scrapfest is an event that will take place in Karachi on 4th February. This event openly promotes LGBTQ. The people hosting this event are NOT human rights activists no matter how much they claim to be neither they are feminists. #banscrapfest
