| Cable network sealed in Kathua | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Nov 22 : The Election Commission today sealed a local cable network in Kathua after its operator failed to come with a "satisfactory answer" to a show cause notice issued to it in connection with a "poll code violation".
"A show cause notice was issued to the owner of the local cable network in Kathua after it came to our notice that the network was violating election code, by airing lengthy political speeches in the garb of news telecast," an official of the election commission said.
He said that after the show cause notice was issued to the owner of the network, a mob had attacked the office of the Additional District Magistrate during which his personal security officer was also injured. "Due time was given to the operator to come with an explanation, however when the network operator failed to come with a satisfactory answer, the deputy commissioner Kathua ordered to seal the network under the authority vested in him," the official said. He said that the network violated Section 11 of the Cable Network Act of 1995 and the action to seal the network was taken under the same section. |
