The entire country is in a fit of rage over social media star Dananeer Mobeen being invited at a leading university of the country to deliver a guest lecture to the students of science and technology.
Dananeer, who grew popular after her ‘Pawri Ho Rai Hai’ video went viral, was invited to a panel discussion on the rise of social media, and subsequently of the social media stars.
While a certain section of the students, and quite a large one, excitedly flew in to attend the lecture by Dananeer, another section has been left extremely disappointed at the kind of speakers being invited in order to motivate students.
A lot of people have pointed out the university and requested it to revisit its academic standards if it is a ‘Pawri Ho Rai Hai’ girl who will now be invited to panel discussions, with no required education to her name but only a video which went viral on the internet.
Few have also expressed serious concern over the declining standards of Pakistan’s educational institutions, which are preferring digital stars who grow viral within seconds as ‘inspirational panelists’ over real hard-working scientists and artists.
