NFADE to stage dharna on Apr 12

Puducherry, Mar 22: The National Federation of All India Radio and Doordarshan Employees (NFADE) will organise a dharna here on April 12 to press their demands.

NFADE state coordinator K Arun Mozhi Selvam in a statement today said they had urged the Information and Broadcasting Ministry to make certain amendments to the Prasar Bharati Act 1990.

He said the Centre should take control of the movable and immovable assets of AIR and DDK so that Prasar Bharti could take independent decisions as per the guidelines of the government.

He also demanded scrapping of section 11 of the Act.
