AGARTALA, Nov 29 (TIWN): For the first time, public came in protest voicing against the shutdown of various media houses including a Govt channel named Mrinalini Enn.
Viewers of Mrinalini Enn channel of Agartala staged a protest at Sristi Cable centre which operates all channels from Agartala Office. According the audience, they were regular viewers of the channel but suddenly the channel was shutdown after election.
Being asked, Sristi Channel officials could not tell the agitators any proper reason for the shutdown of Mrinalini Enn channel, rather they told the agitators that due to imposed order they had to shutdown it.
Various TV channels as Prime TV, Channel Mrinalini, Din Raat, Channel Tripura were shut down after BJP Govt came in power.
Even 40 years old newspaper "Daily Desher Katha" was also shutdown illegally by the Govt, later after 10 days of banning, Tripura High Court removed the banning imposed by State Govt. But, till day "Daily Desher Katha" can not be circulated across state as hawkers have been threatened not to carry "Daily Desher Katha".
