Sawera ka chapa was a morning show on Sama TV channel hosted by Maya Khan. This morning show was believed to be investigative in nature and is intended to inspect any issue, which was considered as an injuries thing to the society, through out this investigative program, all forms of basic human rights were dishonored and it was an attack to privacy. This program claimed that it would help in bringing reforms in society and smack the evil of so-called moral looseness.
Sawera ka chapa raided a park in Clifton Karachi and dishonored the couples dating there. It was like as if they have arrested the culprits of unpardonable crimes. The program team ran after the couples and obligated them to give interviews without their permission. They asked them unethical and immoral questions such as;
why are you here or what are you doing here? why are you dating here? Have you taken permission from your parents for dating? What are the reasons for escaping away from schools/colleges/universities and offices during official timings. You are the black spots on the name of family, community, religion and country! you are the axis of evil in society.
Observing these kind of situations now the question arises that do the media have a right to violate everyone's personal life and who gave this right to Maya Khan to poke her nose in others business.
And why didn't censor board censored such kind of program. The problem with us is that we are living in a country where the violation of fundamental rights is usually a practice. No one dares to raise his/her voice against such kind of violations. The violators are free to attack privacy without any approval. Because this conservativeness there is no freedom of expression, speech or movement. This outrageous act of moral-policing is really dangerous as it has already risked the innocent lives.

Humiliating people in front of the camera
Apologizing for her wrong act..
After the nationwide indignation specially in Karachi, on Twitter and Facebook when social workers, celebrities and decent minded people raised voices over the issue accusing it, it resulted in Maya Khan and her team being fired from their jobs. Maya Khan then came on national TV and apologized, twice saying that the whole content was scripted and she never meant to hurt anyone's feeling or invade their privacy which, ironically is against Media ethics.
