Nepal: Nepal yesterday asked cable operators to block all private Indian news channels alleging the channels carrying anti-Nepal propaganda. To be noted that Indian state run DD News is still allowed to be broadcasted in the country. This decision is effective from 9th July.
Earlier Nepal’s Information and Broadcasting Minister Yubaraj Khatiwada said, “Nepal may seek political and legal remedies and also mobilise diplomatic channels against reports of Indian media attacking Nepal’s sovereignty and dignity.”
Taking this to twitter Rajdeep Sardesai tweeted “Breaking now: Nepal bans all Indian news channels except DD. Says channels running false anti Nepal propaganda.. well, some run propaganda, period”
