Pakistan government’s official X (formerly Twitter) handle, @GovtofPakistan has been withheld in India. The move comes amid heightened tensions that escalated between India and Pakistan over terrorist attack in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pahalgam that took place on Tuesday, April 22, 2025. Around 26 persons were killed in the attack which is said to be carried out by Pakistan-based The Resistance Front.
If Twitter users in India were to search for Pakistan Government’s account, a display message would pop up stating, “Account Withheld @GovtofPakistan has been withheld in IN in response to a legal demand. https://Learn more.” However, people outside India can access the twitter account.
