Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) Chairman Major General (retd) Hafeezur Rehman on Tuesday stated that the authority will unblock social media platform X (formerly Twitter) whenever the government directs.
Speaking in Islamabad, he said, "If the government or the Ministry of Interior orders us to block X, we are bound to follow the instruction without raising any questions. We are ready to reopen the platform the day the government says so".
Rehman highlighted that internet restrictions are not unique to Pakistan, noting incidents across Asia.
