India has intensified its digital crackdown on Pakistani media outlets and blocked access to the YouTube channel of Pakistan army’s media wing, Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR).
The government has reportedly urged platforms like YouTube, Instagram and X to ban all Pakistani handles from operating in India.
Visitors attempting to access the ISPR channel on YouTube are now greeted with a message stating: “This content is currently unavailable in this country because of an order from the government related to national security or public order.”
Apart from the ISPR, several more popular Pakistani drama channels on YouTube, including ARY, Har Pal Geo and Hum TV, have also been blocked by the Indian government.
