The president joined the TikTok days after the Sindh High Court (SHC) banned the popular video sharing platform over "immoral content" and for celebrating "LGBTQ-Pride Month".
Later, the SHC ordered the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) to unblock the popular video-sharing site TikTok after the internet and telecommunication regulator assured the court that it will take a decision on the complaint of the petitioner.
Presdient Alvi has also separate social media accounts on micro-blogging website Twitter, Instagram and Facebook.
