Pakistan has banned media coverage of Mumbai attack mastermind Hafiz Saeed-led Jamaat-ud-Dawa as part of a crackdown on terrorism, media reports said today.

Interior Ministry has imposed a ban on the media coverage of Jamaat-ud-Dawa, Falah-e-Insaniyat (FIF) and Lashkar-e-Taiba under the National Action Plan, ARY News reported.

Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority has issued the notification in this regard.

It was not clear whether the move was linked to Prime Minister Nawz Sharif's assurance to US President Barack Obama last month to take "effective action" against UN-designated terrorist individuals and entities, including LeT and its affiliates, as per its international commitments and

obligations under UN Security Council resolutions.
