The press, television, and radio are vital forces in Pakistan's political life. The importance of the press was evident even before independence.Radio also has been an effective method of communication because the literacy rate is low and other methods of communication are sometimes not available. The media played an active role in all three national elections from the late 1980s to the mid-1990s. Although the government-owned radio and PTV presented a progovernment line.
Freedom of speech has not been given to the media owing to the political instability in Pakistan.

ReplyDeletedefinitely media and radio are playing a vital role in making the audience aware of the events, as they occur, within no time
ReplyDeleteI agree with nida. Now a days, freedom of speech is being exploited to quite an extent in Pakistan by our so called "DEMOCRATIC" leaders. Recently, Geo's broadcast was again banned by the current president Asif Zardari for being pro-PML N where as previously it was banned by Pervez Musharaf for being in the favor of the lawyer's movement. If the simple and the most basic concept of democracy can't be followed in our country then how can our leaders falsly claim the government to be DEMOCRATIC.
