Hina Parvez Butt calls out Rajab Butt, Ali Hyderabadi, other TikTokers for ‘Ruining Pakistani Youth’

LAHORE – A fresh controversy erupted on social media as Pakistan Muslim League-N (PML-N) leader Hina Parvez Butt called out some of Pakistan’s most-followed digital creators, accusing them of setting a damaging example for young audiences. The lawmaker of ruling party shared picture featuring You Tubers Rajab Butt, Ali Hyderabadi, and Sami Rashid, questioning the growing influence of online creators. “These are our social media influencers. These ignorant people are the ones our public follows. The children who follow them are ruining their upbringing,” she wrote, urging parents to keep their children away from such personalities. Her remarks come amid mounting controversy surrounding Ali Hyderabadi, who recently shared a video announcing that he had divorced his wife. The video quickly sparked widespread criticism across social media, with many users questioning the decision to publicize such a personal matter. The controversy intensified further after Ali Hyderabadi’s wife publicly leveled serious allegations against him, fueling heated debate online. Rajab Butt has also remained in the spotlight in recent months. YouTuber has previously spent time in police custody, while reports of marital disputes involving him and his wife have repeatedly made headlines, keeping his personal life under intense public scrutiny. Hina’s comments sparked debate over the role of social media influencers in Pakistan, with supporters arguing that digital creators should be held to higher standards because of their massive reach, while critics say public figures should avoid broad generalizations and personal attacks. The controversy continues to dominate online discussions, highlighting the growing clash between political voices and Pakistan’s influencer culture.
