    Hina Bayat is done with internet shutdowns

    Since the past few days internet outages have become a serious problem in Pakistan, negatively affecting daily life and business.

    Actress Hina Bayat posted a video on instagram with the caption “Aapko Khuda ka waasta humari qaum per reham karain ”.

    The star went on to say, “On one hand, we cry about our deteriorating economy, and then the government claims it is working to improve it. Yet, on the other hand, they shut down the internet, which directly affects people’s businesses. I’m worried that shutting down the internet will take away people’s jobs and livelihoods. What’s the point of doing this? Are you trying to protect yourself out of fear? But it’s actually harming our country’s economy and businesses. It feels like you’re trying to destroy Pakistan, which is what our enemies want. I’m asking the government, army, and judiciary to please be fair and do what’s right.”
