ISLAMABAD – Freedom Network has urged Prime Minister Imran Khan to give equal audience to all media.
The suggestion came following an interview he gave to a select group of seven television presenters on Monday.
The network pointed out through a tweet on Wednesday that every media had a right to access, and reminded the prime minister that the pick-and-choose policy could harm the spirit of press freedom.
