Rawalpindi (94news) On the issue of social media account closure, ISPR has contacted the Facebook administration and protested against declaring the accounts as Pakistan Army Public Relations Department accounts without any verification and blocking the accounts even though there is no objectionable content.

According to the details, Pakistan Army's public relations department, ISPR, has contacted the Facebook administration. Facebook has blocked hundreds of accounts of Pakistan on India's EMA, while Facebook also declared these accounts as ISPR accounts without verification. In this regard, ISPR has contacted the Facebook management with all the facts and details. The stand taken by ISPR is that the closed accounts have no official connection with ISPR.
