KARACHI – As people are looking to access X, former Twitter, in Pakistan, without VPN, the ban remains in place and now the national telcom authority cleared air on Pakistan.
Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) issued a statement clarifying status of social media platform X in Asian nation. PTA confirmed that X is still suspended and not available.
The recent development comes as PTA’s lawyer Ahsan Imam informed court that PTA retracted earlier notification regarding the suspension of X. This update was provided in response to Sindh High Court’s request for PTA’s position on X ban.
Sindh High Court directed the Ministry of Interior to lift its suspension order for microblogging platform within a week. The original ban on X was imposed in February after last polls.
