Abstract

Any country's future success depends on ongoing development projects. They must ensure that their citizens live in a safe and healthy sociopolitical environment. However, it varies from region to region. As a country with a small economy, Pakistan cannot guarantee the safety of its people. As a result, the government can focus on what is best for its citizens through various methods. The open data system forces the authority to provide access to data to the public in real time. After the Right to Information Act 2016 was promulgated, it is essential for organizations to make their data accessible to public within real time. It is one of these critical developments initiated within Pakistan's framework that provides massive access to data bases and data sets of public interest. People can make progress in their lives by consulting databases that are available online. It broadens their horizons and encourages them to think creatively. It also gives them the chance to sharpen their learning abilities and accept the concession of taking things from their resources and use them completely. It's a win-win situation. When using private data sources, it's important to keep in mind that not all data is secure. Open data is critical to allowing people to get input and use it in the right way. Using available data systems in the journalism to assess the impact on Pakistani political communication is the focus of this research. For the sake of preventing corruption, open data systems are essential in journalism across the country. To put it another way, the systems in place encourage national institutions to take accountability seriously. As a result, there is a probability of witnessing corruption that destabilizes society. Increasing innovation and creativity requires the use of open data systems. The availability of these resources has been shown to play a significant role in establishing a trend of innovative growth. The positive impact of 'Open Data' on Pakistani political communication, particularly in the context of electronic media, is widely observed.
