A Bangladeshi lawyer petitions to ban Indian TV channels, citing harm to local culture.

A Bangladeshi lawyer has filed a petition in the Bangladesh High Court seeking a ban on Indian TV channels, citing their negative impact on Bangladeshi culture and society. The petition, under the Cable Television Network Operation Act 2006, claims these channels air provocative content and threaten cultural values, particularly harming the youth. The court, hearing the case, includes the information and home ministries as respondents. This move comes amid strained relations between India and Bangladesh and rising violence against minority groups.
