As Pakistan approaches polls, TikTok has outlined efforts to combat misinformation and uphold election integrity on its platform, state-run APP reports.

The platform’s latest initiatives demonstrate its unwavering commitment to maintaining a safe, authentic, and reliable environment during this important period, according to a news release.

The app is working closely with fact-checking organisation AFP to specifically address misinformation ahead of elections.

Additionally, it has launched the Pakistan Election Center on the platform which will direct users to authoritative information on the election, including voting procedures and locations.

Moreover, its “easy-to-use” reporting tools will empower users to easily identify and report potentially misleading content.
