According to Shibli Faraz, the prime minister has spent most of his life in the west and knows the importance of social and cultural values. He ensured that every step wil be taken to check and control the spread of vulgar and indecent content in the country.

Prime Minister Imran Khan has also taken notice of content being aired on television especially after a recent clip from state-owned PTV was shared on social media showing a female working out in gym attire which was considered inappropriate by many people.

The information minister said that he will be meeting with the Managing Director (MD) of PTV to ensure that no such content is broadcasted on the channel.

Asim Bajwa has been directed to help produce films about Islamic history and its heroes which are free from vulgarity and obscenity. According to the article, Bajwa has already contacted drama and film makers of Pakistan to change the current trend which focuses on a more Bollywood type of productive to trend followed by Turkey and Iran.

The Turkish drama Ertugrul which started airing in Pakistan on the directives on Prime Minister Imran Khan has broken all records while showcasing Islamic history.

However, it is pertinent to mention that not all Turkish dramas are about Islamic history and some even showcase implied sex scenes and kissing and there is no clarification if Pakistan is to move towards the complete trend being followed by Turkey.

Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) has also been hard at work trying to censor the internet. The regulator has banned several dating apps which promoted homosexuality and has issued warnings to TikTok to remove all objectionable content from their app otherwise action will be taken.
