Kathmandu : Press Council Nepal (PCN) has noted its protest over the malicious contents disseminated by Indian Television channels against Nepal and Nepali people.
PCN acting chair Kishor Shrestha informed that Nepal’s press council took serious exception to the Press Council of India over the dissemination of unsubstantiated, inexcusable and baseless contents by some Indian media.
Likewise, the PCN has taken action against two online media of Nepal for the dissemination of provocative contents.
