“I, myself, wanted a ban on TikTok in Pakistan, but it should not be on a permanent basis,” she said. Mirza added: “I am in Japan and I have received news from Pakistan about the ban on TikTok.”
She, however, said that livelihood of so many people is connected to the application. The application should continue but with certain SOPs. She also advocated the monitoring of the content.
“In general, it was a good app. It was accessible to everyone. So much talent emerged through this app,” she emphasized.
