LAHORE (Dunya News) - The Lahore High Court has adjourned the hearing of a miscellaneous application seeking restoration of X (formerly Twitter) till April 2.
LHC’s Justice Asim Hafeez heard the petition of Advocate Huzaifa Naeem filed for restoration of social media app X.
During the hearing Justice Asim Hafeez inquired about the petition and the petitioner stated that the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) had made it impossible for the public to access the micro-blogging site X.
The court suggested a solution while referring to a minister who said the site could be accessed through VPN.
The petitioner stressed the need for a long-term solution. "If police ask someone to avoid a certain route as dacoits rule there, it is not a solution,” he said.
