DELHI: Private TV news-channels are still busy in minting money through costly advertisements when presently their viewership is tremendously increased now-a-days when they abruptly stop telecast of important government-telecasts like was done on 24.03.2020 with mid-cut of press-conference of Union Finance Minister announcing relief in tax-payments in view of Corona-emergency by almost all private TV news-channels just not to lose revenue coming from advertisements. Only various channels of Doordrashan telecast full press-conference of Nirmala Sitaraman.

Central government should make it compulsory for all private TV news-channels to follow Doordarshan for complete uninterrupted telecast of some very important government-programmes.

For making lives of home-bound people for 21-day long lock-out ending on 14th April 2020, Doordarshan should telecast original versions of Ramayana (Ramanand Sagar) and Mahabharat (BR Chopra) as part of educative and entertaining programmes for time-pass of masses. Some other popular-most TV serials of yesteryears like Rajni and Hum Log can also be considered to be telecast by Doordarshan in these days of long lock out.
