November 07, 2016 19:37

After much-criticsim, the information and broadcast ministry has put ban on Hindi news channel NDTV India, news agency Press Trust of India reported, quoting the official sources.

Earlier, NDTV India had moved the Supreme Court against the government's order banning its telecast for a day on November 9 for its coverage of the Pathankot terror attack.

The television channel has vigorously denied the government's charge, pointing out that it had only reported what government spokespersons had briefed the media about the military operation directed against the terrorists.

The government decision has been denounced by several press associationa, oppositions parties and journalists.
