A temporary ban has been imposed on Facebook, Twitter, TikTok, WhatsApp, Instagram, and YouTube, the Ministry of Interior said in a statement, adding that they will remain blocked until 3:00 PM (local time).
On Thursday, the Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (PEMRA) banned coverage by all television and radio licensees of the proscribed Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP).
It is noteworthy that the federal government has imposed a ban on the TLP under the anti-terrorism act. A notification was issued by the Ministry of Interior after the federal cabinet approved the summary seeking a ban on the religio-political party.

The whole of Pakistan is a mental hospital. But they don’t treat their patients. They have 200 million of them.
