However, NEO TV failed to comply with the same and challenged the decision of PEMRA before Islamabad High Court. The Islamabad High Court dismissed the channels plea for a change of category to News and Current Affairs and upheld PEMRA’s decision.


NEO TV was provided sufficient opportunity Pto revert back to its original content but the channel continued the violations of PEMRA directives.
