Social media reacts as Pakistan’s newly elected MNAs and MPAs take oath!
Today marks a historical day for Pakistan as after the 2018 general elections, the newly elected members of the national and provincial assemblies took their oath. Following the oath taking ceremony at the National Assembly and provincial assemblies of Sindh, Baluchistan and KPK, there were several reactions on social media on Pakistan’s successful democratic transition of power.
Best of luck to all the parliamentarians who are in the national assembly. May you fulfill your oaths & help Pakistan be a better place. May you have the sense & the conscience to serve your country above personal agendas, hatred and bigotry. #nationalassembly

Love how everyone’s smiling and shaking hands when they actually hate each other. Just like all of us at parties #NationalAssembly

Something about that parliament always gives me goosebumps. It is a place that unites each Pakistani through its diverse group of representatives. Elections are always disputed in his country but nice to see a third peaceful democratic transition of power. Pakistan zindabad 🇵🇰
