ISLAMABAD: The management of ARY News has obtained stay order from the Sindh High Court against the suspension of its licence by Pemra and the channel is back on air.

After the court’s directives, the Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (Pemra) issued a notification on Wednesday, withdrawing its earlier order that had suspended the channel for 15 days.

While a copy of the fresh notification has been forwarded to the SHC in compliance of the stay order, verbal instructions have been issued to cable networks to start airing the channel.
