ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister of Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) Raja Farooq Haider Khan has said social media will not be allowed to operate unregulated.
Addressing a meeting of the officials of administration and police at Kashmir House Islamabad on Tuesday, he said government does not want to impose restrictions on positive use of social media, but there will be red lines to separate right use of social media from wrong.
The meeting was attended by Chief Secretary, Dr Ejaz Munir, Inspector General Police, Principal Secretary to Prime Minister, Commissioners of Muzaffarabad, Mirpur and Poonch Divisions besides Deputy Commissioners, DIGs and SSPs of different districts.
The Prime Minister directed the officials to take action against those found violating cyber crimes law with impunity. He ordered the administration to keep their focus on protection and safety of the people living along the Line of Control and maintaining the law and order in their areas and leave no stone unturned in providing relief to the affected population.
The phase of establishing village defence committees along the Line of Control would be completed in consultation with Pak Army, he added.
Prime Minister Haider said establishing village defence committees and taking other protective measures, including timely relief to the victims of Indian firing is priority of the government and any negligence in this respect would not be acceptable.
The prime minister went on to say that administrative officers performing well would be encouraged and appreciated while there will be zero tolerance on underperformance or poor performance.
The prime minister also directed the police to post educated, trained and well- behaved police personnel at all entry and exit points linking Pakistan to Azad Kashmir to facilitate the tourists and other intending visitors to the state.
Prime Minister also gave directives for strict implementation of traffic laws in order to minimize road accidents and crackdown against the drug paddlers without considering any fear or favour.
Earlier AJK PM made a call to the son of Interior Minister Ahsan Iqbal and inquired after his health. He prayed for the early recovery of the Interior Minister.
