Charged with obscenity, FTV faces 10-day ban wef April 1,2013


Fashion TV will go off air for 10 days starting April 1,2013

This will make it the fifth channel this year to be taken off air on complaints of nudity, while similar action against six more channels have been recommended by a government panel.

Last year, only one channel was asked to be taken off air.

It will be the 3rd time that FTV channel has been banned by the government for showing female nudity. In all the 3 instances, its popular programme Midnight Hot was at centre of trouble; Information and Broadcasting Ministry had to impose two-month ban in March 2007, 10-day ban in March 2010 and now another 10-day handed out to it on March 28, 2013.
