The Centre has directed TV channels not to broadcast any "provocative" content, a week after communal clashes broke out in Delhi's Jahangirpuri during a religious procession. The Ministry of Information and Broadcasting issued a strongly-worded advisory on Saturday, pulling up private channels for their distasteful coverage of the Northwest Delhi violence. It also asked them to avoid airing sensational content on the Russia-Ukraine war.
