The Ministry of Home Affairs has opened up a second re-registration call for all news outlets and magazines.
The ministry had ordered all registered newspapers, news websites, magazines, and periodicals to re-register in October during the vote to elect members for the Maldives Media Council.
The order came after reporters complained over the eligibility of publications that were not in regular circulation to vote in the elections.
The ministry said it was opening up a second call due to popular requests. Media companies and news outlets must submit proof that they have been regularly publishing in the past six months.
