The PNCR is questioning the legal basis for President Bharrat Jagdeo ordering the 4-month closure of CNS TV Channel 6 and is also contending that it is clearly intended to cripple the business operations rather than sanction it for any infringement.
“There is no doubt that the President’s actions are motivated by self-serving, partisan political considerations through the selective exercise of the functions that should normally reside in an autonomous National Broadcasting Authority,” the party said in a press statement on Tuesday.
