FM Radio-91 suspended

ISLAMABAD- PEMRA temporarily suspended transmission of FM-91 Radio Islamabad on account of severe violation of term and conditions of License and Technical parameters approved by the PEMRA.

The FM radio was allowed 50 watts transmit power whereas it was illegally using 1 KW power. Moreover, the station did not install any filter, causing severe interference in Air Traffic Control of Civil Aviation which could have caused an air crash.

Despite repeated PEMRA notices, the management of FM-91 did not reduce the power at approved level. Finally, on the report of Frequency Allocation Board, PEMRA suspended transmission of FM-91.
