Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority has suspended the license of Nickelodeon, a US based satellite channel that targets kids and youth.

PEMRA, in a statement issued moments ago, said that license was suspended, with immediate effect, due to violation of authority order in which it had directed channels to not to show Indian content in Pakistan after October 21st, 2016.
PEMRA said that despite warnings, Nickelodeon kept showing Indian content for several days and now its landing rights in Pakistan have been suspended.
PEMRA said that it will continue to monitor satellite channels in Pakistan and any violations —  particularly for showing Indian content — will be dealt severely.
PEMRA said that suspension of Nickelodeon has been communicated to all distribution networks.
 
Pakistan suspends Nickelodeon channel's licence for airing Indian content

The Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (Pemra) has suspended the licence of Nickelodeon channel for airing cartoons dubbed in Hindi language. The electronic media watchdog on Monday announced that the licence was suspended over violation of Pemra directives, following the October 19 decision which stated that any satellite channel or those with landing rights would face bans over screening of Indian content, Dawn news reported. The statement issued by Pemra said that all distribution networks have been informed about the suspension of Nickelodeon channels. The decision will come into effect immediately. Pemra has imposed a complete ban on airing Indian content on local television and FM radio channels. It has been implemented on the cable networks, including the channels being operated by cable operators. The Pemra decision is largely seen as a tit-for-tat move after a similar action by some channels and the entertainment industry in India against Pakistani content and artists.
