Based on these complaints, one app is already blocked while Tik Tok to face a similar action if content isn’t regulated more strictly on the platform.

PTA had issued necessary notices to the aforementioned social media companies under law to moderate the socialization and content within legal and moral limits, in accordance with the laws of the country.

However, the response of these companies has not been satisfactory.

Therefore, in exercise of its powers under PECA, PTA has decided to immediately block Bigo and issue final warning to Tik Tok to put in place a comprehensive mechanism to control obscenity, vulgarity and immorality through its social media application.


  • Tiktok is from China. India has banned Tiktok and America and UK are considering it. We all know that China has protested on this decision. If Pakistan will start banning Chinese apps then we should remember that China will consider that Pakistan is siding with India, America and UK. PTA Old Chairman must think from his brain(if he has any). We can lose an ally by these stupid mistakes. Remember PUBG is Chinese as well.
    Why European and American fighting games and social media platforms are not getting a ban?. Some Officials from PTA are playing a double game against Pakistan?.

    • Banning should be banned.
      Agr aysy hi ban karty rahy tou phir internet bhi ban kar doo.
      Aag laga doo cell towers ko.

  • youth are wasting their precious time on TikTok and called on the government to immediately take notice of it and block access to the mobile app in the country to save the younger generation.
