BANNING OF WIKIPEDIA IN PAKISTAN

Wikipedia is world’s top multilingual online free encyclopaedia which is written and maintained by a community of volunteers, known as wikipedians. Wikipedia is the largest and most read reference work in the history. A ban on wikipedia was imposed over alleged blasphemous content. Wikipedia has been blocked in Pakistan for hosting “blasphemous content”. The move was announced on Saturday after the free online encyclopaedia was given a 48-hour deadline to remove some material. The Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) said Wikipedia failed to comply with its ultimatum. The Wikimedia Foundation, which hosts Wikipedia, said the ban meant Pakistanis would be denied access “to the largest free knowledge repository”.  Pakistan has now removed ban on the online encyclopedia, Wikipedia, following a two-day suspension after PM Shehbaz Sharif directed the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) to “immediately” do so.
