Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (PEMRA) has issued a show cause notice to three entertainment channels that include Geo Entertainment for violating the guidelines for Ramadan transmissions by PEMRA.

With the holy month of Ramadan upon us, there are numerous special transmissions being broadcasted on various channels. In a quest of winning the month’s highest TRP’s each channel has come up with a show that gives tough competition to the next.

Geo Entertainment has been charged with violating Pemra’s regulations as they have aired the quiz program before 9 pm which was not allowed by the regulatory body and is a direct violation of Para V of the directions. Apart from Geo, other channels that have received a notice by Pemra are Sindh TV and KTN.
