According to several pakistani news outlets (like: Geo and Samaa), The Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) has imposed a temporary ban on PUBG. It is an online battle game that is very "addictive". In turn, it is severely damaging the health of young Pakistani boys and girls.
PTA has recently notified that:-
"PTA has received numerous complaints against PUBG wherein it is stated that the game is addictive, wastage of time and poses serious negative impact on physical and psychological health of the Children."
