PBA condemns Punjab Assembly’s anti-media motion

KARACHI: The Pakistan Broadcasters Association (PBA) has condemned the unanimous resolution against the media passed by the provincial assembly of the Punjab last week, says a press release.

The PBA said its member broadcasters were supportive of the democratic dispensation, but it was their duty to enlighten the electorate of unethical practices adopted by certain elected representatives. The people of Pakistan expect their representatives to have high moral standards as they look up to them as their leaders entrusted with their destiny. Whether they are assembly resolutions or laws aimed at scuttling the media freedom, both will be resisted with full force, reiterated the association of broadcasters.
