The regulator quoted an order of the Islamabad High Court passed last year in February in its reminder: “…in the meanwhile, respondents are directed to ensure that nothing about the celebrations of Valentine’s Day and its promotion is spread on the Electronic and Print Media.

The IHC orders were passed on a writ petition titled ‘Mr. Abdul Waheed vs Federation of Pakistan.’
