ISLAMABAD—Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (PEMRA) on Monday banned TV channels from airing a commercial of "Power Full (Energy Drink)" containing indecent and vulgar content.
According to a press release, the regulator received complaints from the public through Pakistan Citizen Portal (PCP) and PEMRA Complaints Call Centre. They criticized the concept of this advertisement which they said promoted vulgarity and unethical norms, especially among the youth.
PEMRA rules and regulations prohibit airing of any indecent, obscene, vulgar, or pornographic content.
