ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Electronic Media Authority (PEMRA) has barred TV channels from celebrating and promoting Valentine’s Day.
A notification was issued by PEMRA on Wednesday that advised all broadcast media and distribution services to desist from promoting Valentine’s Day through their respective channels/networks.
The decision was made following the directives of the Islamabad High Court (IHC) in a petition seeking a ban on celebrations of the day by the electronic or print media.
The court had ordered PEMRA to ensure that nothing about the celebrations of Valentine’s Day and its promotion was spread on electronic media. “No event shall be held at official level and at any public place,” it added.
