thread already running....

it is not difficult to see when you post a title- it shows you SIMILAR THREADS for a reason!

 

[Dubious]

Its about bloody time. It must be reviewed by non-south asians to be sure if fair play..

You write this here and then open an exactly same thread somewhere else?

 

[KhanBaba2]

If this was true, Ghafoor's account would have been the first to have been suspended

 

[Sabretooth]

Everyone with an email address should start sending complaint emails about this matter to support@twitter.com

 

[Enigma SIG]

Content review teams are run by Indians so naturally they will silence pro-kashmiri accounts. Indian's don't even understand the D of Democracy.

 

[Pakistan Space Agency]

Isn't this the job of the Interior Minister or does DG ISPR unofficially holds this position as well as being the unofficial Defence Minister?

 

[Rusty]

If they got nothing to hide or be ashamed of why suspend?

Violation of freedom of information and rights to information!

I wonder if Pakistani journalists are going to protest about this?

Pakistani journalist are a begaraty bunch who only defend "freedoms" when the state pulls their ad funding.

Other then that, they happy to sport corruption, dictators and looters.

Twitter and Facebook are US companies they should regulate , this closer
Facebook already is in hot waters over spreading political news

Now they are not allowing real news to spread due to Indian Ad Hawks

You write this here and then open an exactly same thread somewhere else?

Pakistan has taken up the issue of the suspension of social media accounts that were posting in favour of Kashmir by highlighting the Indian atrocities in the occupied region with Twitter and Facebook, said Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Director General (DG) Major General Asif Ghafoor in a Twitter post.

“Pakistan authorities have taken up the case with Twitter and Facebook against suspending Pakistani accounts for posting in support of Kashmir. Indian staff at their regional headquarters is the reason,” he said in a post on his personal account.

He encouraged social media users whose accounts have been suspended to come forward.

Over the last one week, several social media users from Pakistan took to Twitter to report that posting about Indian atrocities in Jammu and Kashmir were being suspended.

Last week, the Twitter handle of a Pakistan journalist was suspended for responding to Indian defence minister’s tweet.

The suspension of these accounts, as alleged by Gen Ghafoor, has been linked to the Indian influence with the tech giants.

India hosts around 250 million Facebook users, besides having a partnership multiple Indian organizations, unlike Pakistan which has only one.

As Kashmir issue continues to heat up, Pakistan’s use of social media, smart diplomatic initiatives and protest gatherings from government and civil society to highlight Kashmir conflict amid recent events of Indian aggression has launched a successful quest to negate Indian propaganda on the issue.

Pakistan also observed Indian Independence Day (Aug 15) as a black day to give the world a message about actions of the Indian government.

The solidarity movement with Kashmir was augmented with an effective social media campaign with hashtags such as #KashmirBanegaPakistan and #15AugustBlackDay.

Various other hashtags like #RedForKashmir, #BleedForKashmir, #StandWithKashmir, and #ModiKillingKashmiris #KashmirUnderThreat had also trended on top since Aug 5

Very very good step, Pakistan should demand Twitter and Facebook to disclose its "policy" toward Pakistan, India and Kashmir. They have to prove themselves neutral, otherwise just ban them in Pakistan, they cannot be allowed to play "political games" on behalf of india and behave as pimps to promote indian propaganda on their platforms. Twitter should especially targeted as it is struggling economically and the american stock exchange for not being able to get more new accounts made on their platform which directly influence the financial matters regarding advertisements on twitter.
