In the Punjab Assembly, government member Hameeda Mian initiated a resolution to ban dance and music at wedding events. The proposal highlights concerns over these gatherings, which are increasingly being streamed live on social media and often feature what are deemed indecent and vulgar performances.

The resolution points out that such events not only promote inappropriate behaviour, especially when alcohol is involved but also lead to instances of mistreatment of performers, including transgender individuals and female dancers, with some incidents resulting in injuries or fatalities.

The resolution advocates strict regulations on these gatherings to combat these issues and suggests legislative measures to prevent such behaviours. It specifically calls for an amendment to Section 294 of the Pakistan Penal Code to enhance penalties and prison sentences for those found guilty of abusing performers.

During the debate, Assemblymember Uzma Kardar opposed the resolution, arguing that it would diminish the simple pleasures experienced at such celebrations, which are integral to Punjab’s cultural fabric. “The lady introducing the resolution might be attending different weddings. We oppose bans on celebrations at our children’s weddings as per Punjab’s cultural norms,” Kardar stated.

Adding to the discussion, Malik Muhammad Ahmad Khan, Speaker of the Punjab Assembly, addressed the perceived double standards in societal views on culture and vulgarity. He noted that the resolution is under review by a committee considering possible amendments. Meanwhile, Samiullah Khan stressed the role of societal norms in mitigating social ills. He regretted the absence of effective social pressure groups in Pakistan that could uphold cultural and social standards.
