Pakistan Peoples Party politician Shazia Marri submitted the resolution, demanding the lifting of the ban on YouTube which was unanimously accepted by the lower house of the Parliament. Marri said the government should lift ban on YouTube as soon as possible. She said people were using proxy servers to watch YouTube and that the government should not adopt any double standards in this regard.
