Another high-level assembly concludes with hollow statements about the resurgence of industry

It seems that the general focus is on conducting meetings at the highest point and subsequently publishing statements in the media.
During his tenure, the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) and the Pakistan-Nawaz Muslim League (PML-N) held similar meetings; they had also published cultural policies in their statements; however, the film industry remained a dead horse. it faces is the lack of resources, both human and material.

In Pakistan, some publications in recent years have been funded through government agencies. These were raised about patriotism but weak in human content. Movies can only thrive if the personal sector is more concerned in the industry. Then there’s the censorship factor.
