Jalwa TV aired the vulgar Hindi video song “Jahaan Tum Ho” sung by Shrey Singhal. The following video which is hosted on youtube.com which has more than 19840735 views has been aired on Jalwa Television.

PEMRA took this decision after they had received a number of complaints about the indecent songs that were
aired on “Jalwa TV”. The authority had issued notices to the channel on April 5, 2017, for a personal hearing.


After reviewing the complaints and analyzing the written reply of the channel, it turned out that the channel had violated Section 20 (0 of PEMRA Ordinance 2002 as amended by PEMRA Act 2007, Rule 15(1) of PEMRA Rules 2009 and clauses 3(l)(a), 3(l)(e), and 12 of Electronic Media (Programmes and Advertisement) Code of Conduct 2015. Instructions have been given to Paksat to immediately stop the transmission of Jalwa TV from April 29,
2017 till May 6, 2017.

Here’s the song that Jalwa TV was fined and suspended over:



Through a separate order, all distribution networks, and cable operators have also been directed to take the channel off air. In the case of non-compliance of PEMRA’s decision, the Authority shall proceed against the channel for revocation of its license under Section 30 of PEMRA Ordinance 2002.

Take a look at the full notice below:

Why they don't ban youtube and all satellite channel since Pakistanis have access to other channels also.

Ban internet, ban youtube, ban facebook and after all ban whole Pakistan for speaking.

Stupidity at best.

Good step . those who dont like that you people are more then welcome to leave the country .

 

[Lagay Raho]

For once PEMRA did something good.

[Zibago]

Sopemra become now tehreek e permraban pakistan .

I have less issues with the content more with its place of origin waisey bhi jinhoan ney low budget Punjabi films daikhien hain unko pata hay yahan kiya haal hy and new films mein bhi zalzalay wali chezain hain

 

[Zibago]

No they are making certain group happy.

Nah if that was the case they would first put breaks on local cinema

@Zibago

Not a fan of Pemra but the Pak laws incl. Pemra Ordinance must be respected just.

Pemra suspended them according to laws, if Pemra ties to play the role it was made for, most of the channels would be closed.

Liberals, feudals and anti-Pak mafia want lax regulations on them and full force of the law on madrassas, actually both want more stringent laws for the other and less for themselves, which shows both are biased and their views should be rejected.

Pdf lately is being used by certain foreign residents as well as closeted atheist liberal ppl for their agendas and against Pakistani laws, I hope Pdf does its job that is reprimanding the jokers or blocking them if they use the forum to spread disinformation for their specific agenda.

 

[Zibago]

Only 0.5% to 1% visit cinema in Pakistan and on the other hand 99% people watch cable with 100s of channels, So they know which thing make more effect, Check the news again they receive complains and who is going to court or complain PEMRA just over a song you know what I mean the people who wore short shalwar.

And that is a good thing if more sources are closed for foreign content
I have issues with the place of origin of that song all content from that place should be banned on tv

Pemra suspended them according to laws, if Pemra ties to play the role it was made for, most of the channels would be closed.

Pemra is politicized by the ruling party if it did its job correctly geo would be thing of past

Pdf lately is being used by certain foreign residents as well as closeted atheist liberal ppl for their agendas and against Pakistani laws, I hope Pdf does its job that is reprimanding the jokers or blocking them if they use the forum to spread disinformation for their specific agenda.

If they are Pakistanis they have a right to express their opinion on subjects that affect Pakistan

anti-Pak

DOnt you mean noon leagis

 

[Zibago]

Foreign content is much more reasonable in comparison with our lollywood crap.

Oh a perma ban member is back

Nope ban foreign content Canada,France and even CHina puts restriction of foreign content

More importantly foreign content from one source should be completely banned on tv

 

[Zibago]

What you mean by this?


Still foreign content is much more entertaining in comparison with Lollywood.

That is your opinion we will make laws that protect pur content and artists come what may

 

[JOEY TRIBIANI]

I am already living in USA.

Good for you .

 

[A.A. Khan]

If they are Pakistanis they have a right to express their opinion on subjects that affect Pakistan

Hahahaha, this munafiqat needs to end. Being Pakistani means residing, living in Pakistan not a NICOP holder somewhere in North America who lives there, works there and sh*ts on Pakistan from there, imposing his/her views which he left for personal greed and keeps his business abroad.
I hope this dual nationality is finished and I'm going to vote for PML-N if they promise to end dual nationality and block such liberal voters living abroad to be allowed to vote into Pakistan. We are facing several problems Indian violence in Kashmir, heat, electricity problems, NGOs dubious role, foreign funded PAk media and then a foreigner jumps in to BS about Pakistyan society, religion, blasphemy and supporting qadiyanis. This group has helped me change my mind from PTI towards other party.

 

[Zibago]

Hahahaha, this munafiqat needs to end. Being Pakistani means residing, living in Pakistan not a NICOP holder somewhere in North America who lives there, works there and sh*ts on Pakistan

Which member are you talking about?

I'm going to vote for PML-N

Oh lovely you support jindal party nice

end dual nationality

Not a chance that means ganjay kay puttar have to give up their Pakistani nationality

We are facing several problems Indian violence in Kashmir

And our pm is busy entertaining indian agents without valid documents

supporting qadiyanis.

Any issue supporting a group of Pakistanis if they are law abiding non-violent citizens?

other party.

The neeli peeli party ?

foreign funded PAk media

Who are all pro pmln (geo,dawn,express)

 

[Zibago]

Still foreign content is much more entertaining in comparison with Lollywood.
