Telangana CM's warning to news channels

September 10, 2014 10:08

Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao has threatened to "bury alive TV channels that have dared to insult the Telangana assembly, its MLAs, and Telangana's self-respect."

He did not name them but seemed to refer to two Telugu channels -- TV9 and ABN Andhra Jyoti -- that have been protesting against what they call an unofficial ban on their transmission in Telangana, reports NDTV.

"We will bury them some 10 km. We won't hesitate to break their neck and then throw them out," the CM said, adding that those who want to continue to operate in the state "should learn to respect the people of Telangana."
