YouTube ban News
Government of India blocks 22 YouTube channels and a few Twitter accounts and websites.
Last year in December, the govt has blocked 78 YouTube based news channels.
These blocked channels had a cumulative viewership of more than 260 crore.
Google said Tuesday users in Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka would see a new YouTube homepage featuring local content in native languages.
A leading Pakistani daily on Thursday demanded that the ban on YouTube in Pakistan must be lifted and wondered whether it was "one of the most ridiculous bans slapped by the state".
As the ban on video-sharing website Youtube in Pakistan entered its third year, calls to lift the controversial ban have begun to grow even as the government appears reluctant to take any chances, fearing backlash from Islamist extremists.
