ISLAMABAD—Muhammad Malick is livid with the Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (PEMRA) for barring the electronic media from discussing the possibility of a flawed election process.

In a post on X, he asked if PEMRA has gone absolutely bonkers. Media barred from even discussing the possibility of a flawed election process by EC, he tweeted.

On December 4, PEMRA issued a notification, saying all the satellite TV channels were directed to ensure that no speculative, doubtful false information/content concerning the electoral process of General Elections is aired.

Malick added that all media outlets and journalist organizations reject this ridiculous unholy commandment. He called the PEMRA notification a brazen censorship that should be resisted.
