ISLAMABAD, May 29: The government on Tuesday put the Pakistan Electronic Media Authority Regulatory Authority (Pemra) under the administrative control of the information ministry.
“The decision has been taken to overcome problems being faced both by Pemra and the information ministry because of cross-media ownership,” Information Secretary Anwar Mehmood told Dawn.
He rejected an impression that under the decision some powers of Pemra had been given to the information ministry.
“It has nothing to do with the transfer of powers,” he added.
