On Thursday, Twitter announced that it has restricted access to the Pakistan government’s account in India as a result of a legal request.

According to its policies, Twitter may restrict access to an entire account in response to a lawful demand, such as a court order.

However, the @GovtofPakistan account is still accessible for viewing and engagement from countries such as the United States and Canada, as per Reuters’ verification.
