Jammu and Kashmir Assembly to Draft Guidelines for Social Media Journalists
The Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly is set to draft new guidelines to regulate social media journalists, following concerns over their rapid growth and misuse. A House Committee led by MLA Ali Mohammad Sagar has given the Information Department four months to formulate these rules. While some members, like NC MLA Nazir Gurezi, called for regulation, others such as PDP MLA Waheed Para cautioned against censorship. Minister Sakina Itoo acknowledged media's importance but noted existing shortcomings and legislators' roles in media dynamics.
