LAHORE – The provincial administration has banned the entry of TikTokers in all public parks across the province in wake of the harrowing incident that occurred at Minar-e-Pakistan on Independence Day.
Reports in media quoting officials said Punjab Parks and Horticulture Authority (PHA) imposed a ban on the entry of TikTokers into all public parks. The decision was taken in a meeting of officials held in Lahore on Sunday.
A statement issued by Parks & Horticulture Authority Lahore said all Tiktokers, and content creators have to take permission from the concerned authorities for the entrance in parks.
It further stated that the authorities mulled the option to ban the entrance of more than two men in public parks.
