During the hearing of the said proposition of the ‘Removal and Blocking of Unlawful Online Rules 2020’ related to the procedure, oversight, and safeguards, the attorney general assured stakeholders of the changes of the rules for social media. 

The petitioners further adding that the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority [PTA] had been given unconfined sovereignty to act against the uploading of the social media content.    

The government professes to enforce the Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act against all such unfavorable social media posts etc. 

The petitioners comprising of Awami Workers Party, Pakistans Federal Union of Journalist’s secretary Nasir Zaidi, etc had proclaimed that under the constitution the rules were contrary to the freedom of expression. They were of the view that the rules would inevitably lead to the violation of rights to livelihood and the freedom of trade and profession under Articles 9 and 18 of the constitution.

The frontman of the journalists said since there isn’t any sort of a proper platform such as the Pemra’s administrative body to examine the complaints related to the online content rather the regulator had delegated the intelligence agency and the government officials to check regarding the undesirable content.
