Asma Jahangir Conference or AJCONF (Urdu: عاصمہ جہانگیر کانفرنس) is an annual recurring two days conference. The conference was held for the first time in 2018 but could not be held in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The conference is attended by a large number of journalists, lawyers, political leaders, human rights activists, labor leaders, intellectuals and students from all over Pakistan, as well as many officials from foreign countries.[1] Asia program coordinator of the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ), Steven Butler, was deported from Lahore Airport citing the "stop list" in 2019.[2][3] In the 2021 conferences as Nawaz Sharif started his speech, the internet service in the hotel was suddenly suspended.[4]
