The Government has banned foreign satellite channel ‘AXN‘ with immediate effect till March 15 for showing “indecent content“.

The channel got into the wrong books of the ministry for telecasting  a programme titled ‘World’s Sexiest Advertisements‘.

“The programme is against good taste or decency and is likely to adversely affect public morality,” the minister said.

The minister said the programme was “against public morality” and added action was being taken under the provisions of the Cable TV Networks (Regulation) Act, 1995.

Dasmunsi said the ban would be applicable across content delivery platforms like cable, DTH or CAS.

What they have telecast is condemnable and deserves action,” he said.
