Sarwar had filed the petition on August 3 and called TikTok “a great mischief of modern times”. He said in the petition that the app is “destroying the youth” and forcing them to be “selfish” and “go to any lengths to get fame”.

“They are not only wasting their precious time with this nonsense but are also crossing all limits of morality. This can be seen when the guys in the videos are made up like girls, which is shameful and one of the many signs of doomsday,” Sarwar wrote in his petition.
