Goverment Employees banned from using  Social Media platform

The government has introduced new guidelines regarding the use of social media by government officials. 

Under these rules, civil servants are now prohibited from making statements on any media platform, including social media, without the government's prior approval. The policy is part of efforts to ensure that government officials do not release official documents or information that may damage the government's reputation or national interest.

 The guidelines specifically prohibit government officials from making comments that may affect relations with other countries or participating in discussions that threaten their impartiality.

 Furthermore, violation of these rules may result in a misconduct lawsuit. Despite these restrictions, the guidelines also encourage the positive use of social media to promote good governance, transparency, and public service delivery. 

Government agencies are tasked with monitoring  social media platforms to ensure compliance with these guidelines. The new policy aims to strike a balance between the responsible use of social media and the need to protect government interests
