DHAKA, May 6, 2024 (BSS) - The Information and Broadcasting Ministry has taken 10 decisions to stop the illegal broadcasting of domestic and foreign TV channels and operation of unlicensed commercial activities on the broadcast media. It is completely illegal to carry out campaigns inspiring the use of apps for streaming TV channels or selling such apps by installing in set-top-boxes. Furthermore, the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting has issued instructions regarding clean feed broadcasting of foreign TV channels programmes, so no person or organization could broadcast or transmit foreign TV channel programmes without clean feed. Therefore, no person or organization except license holding distributors or service providers can operate or broadcast TV channels or programmes. Authorized distributors should inform their foreign TV channel broadcasters about the decisions in written form.
