No event shall be held at official level and at any public place. Chairman, PEMRA is directed to ensure that all the TV channels shall stop the promotion of Valentine Day, forthwith.
All broadcast and media distribution service licensees are to desist from promoting Valentine’s Day.

Good decision by high Court
really bad i feel sorry for people/myself .. now courts don’t want us to enjoy life any more .. this not a freedom .. let people doo what the want don’t stop us to enjoy our life …. if people want to celebrate valentine let them do .. why courts have problem .. if court want to do some thing good then please 1st finish all you pending case .. courts should do there job ..
if you have to live where valentine day is celebrated, please leave and celebrate there ……. everyone has appreciated the order, except you ……… you are not the one to decide what the whole country wants to do ….
first time media showed nothing …… warna media st. valentine ko apna baap aur us ki girl friend ko apni maa bhi qarar de sakta hai !
