A video of a Pakistani minister seen cutting the ribbon with his teeth instead of scissors during the opening ceremony of a shop has gone viral and has left netizens in splits.

Minister for Prisons and spokesperson for the Government of Punjab, Fayyaz-ul-Hassan Chohan shared the video himself and said that the scissor provided to him did not seem to work despite several tries.

The “scissors were blunt and bad…”!!! The “owner set a new world record to save the shop from embarrassment,” he tweeted.

I guess he is cutting ribbon with his tongue because there is no difference between his tongue and scissor ?? https://t.co/AeltSijRpw
