In a major crackdown, the Indian government has banned 16 Pakistani YouTube channels, including major outlets like Geo News, ARY News, Dawn, and Samaa TV, for spreading fake and provocative content after the Pahalgam terror attack. The decision, made on the recommendation of the Union Home Ministry, also blocks channels for journalists like Asma Shirazi and Umar Cheema. The full list includes Raftar, Suno News, Irshad Bhatti, Muneeb Farooq, The Pakistan Reference, Samaa Sports, Uzair Cricket, and Razi Naama.
These platforms were accused of disseminating misleading and communally sensitive material targeting India, its military, and security forces. Attempting to access the banned channels now shows a government-ordered restriction notice.
