Earlier, leading celebrities and political leaders including Yasir Hussain, Mira Sethi, Sharmila Farooqi and Fawad Chaudhary condemned the expulsion of students for expressing their love on the premises of the university here the last week.
The viral video, which has sparked debate on social media, shows a young woman bending down on one knee and handing red roses to a young man. In response, the man named Shehryar pulled Hadiqa in for a hug.
The crowd surrounding the couple cheered them on but the management of the varsity found it against the code of conduct.
The University of Lahore later issued an expulsion letter to the duo, a move that has divided the social media users with some supporting the expulsion and others condemning it.
