[icernet] Ministry to regulate content on TV

[Arul Selvan MIC]

Censured by both MPs and the human rights commission for obscenity and
undesirable bias on television, the I&B ministry has taken the first step
towards content regulation. The ministry has sent notes to MPs who are
members of its consultative committee for a discussion on how to contain a
surfeit of violence and vulgarity on television. To make the matters worse,
the human rights commission has recently sent a note to the ministry about
two objectionable commercials on TV apparently promoting colour prejudice
and bias against the girl child.
