HC verdict on three Indian TV channels Jan 29
The High Court yesterday fixed January 29 for delivering verdict on a petition seeking its directive on the government to stop telecast of three Indian television channels -- Star Jalsha, Star Plus and Zee Bangla -- in Bangladesh.
Syeda Shahin Ara Laily, a Supreme Court lawyer, submitted the petition to the HC in September 2014, saying programmes broadcast by the three channels left adverse impact on social and cultural life of Bangladeshi people.
Education of the students and regular activities of housewives are being hampered due to watching the channels' programmes, she mentioned in the petition.
