Quite a few months back, the local news programme ‘Aaj Ki Awaaz’, broadcasted over local cable television network at Itanagar was bannned by district administration for violating section 5, 6(d) and 6(e) of Cable Network Rules, 1994. Now, after little more than two months since the ban on the news programme was imposed, it has been revoked by the Papum Pare District Administration and the programme would be re-aired over local cable network from September, 1^st under re-christened name of ‘Aaj ki Samachar’.

The suspensionon ‘Aaj ki Awaaz’ a daily local news bulletin telecasted through the local cable network by the Papum Pare Deputy Commisioner has been revoked.

The DC had few months back suspended the broadcast of the news bulletin which telecast inappropriate news.

‘Aaz ki Awaaz’ has been renamed as ‘Aaz ki Samachar’ will start telecasting news from September 1 next.

Good for the denizens of Twin Capital Township of Naharlagun and Itanagar; now they will have access to the information around their neighborhood again. Hope the producer of the programme has become wise enough to ensure compliance of Cable Network Rules, 1994, under whose sections it was banned earlier to prevent another ban on the programme.
