World Freedom Day is celebrated on 3rd May every year in the whole world to highlight the importance of media and the role of free and independent media in democratic society it is declared by the United National General Assembly in 1993 it was observed to raise the awareness about the duty and respect in the right of freedom of expression.

We all know that Covid-19 had a great impact on Press freedom so here I want to discuss some main points about that we should do on this day:
First of all we should spread awareness about the importance of press freedom.
Government should take great steps to save the journalists from threats.
We should give our best to the organisation's and donate some money to journalists organization.
We should organise the seminar and functions to give the guidance to people.
