PUCSL urges to lift Social Media restriction

Date:

The Public Utilities Commission of Sri Lanka (PUCSL) has urged the Telecommunications Regulatory Commission of Sri Lanka (TRCSL) and internet service providers to lift the restriction imposed on Social Media immediately.

The Social Media restriction has made it difficult to inform the public about the power cuts, the PUCSL Chairman said, adding that it would be essential for people to use Social Media to become aware of the power outages.

Therefore, it would also be essential to lift the restrictions imposed on the use of Social Media, the PUCSL emphasised.
