The Information and Broadcasting Ministry has taken action against private satellite channels in 124 cases since 2014, which include taking them off-air nine times, for showing obscene contents and committing other violations.

I&B Minister Prakash Javadekar informed Lok Sabha on Friday that the ministry had issued 46 advisories, 39 warnings and ordered channels to run “apology scroll” in 30 cases besides taking them off-air in nine matters.

He provided the written information to the House during the Question House.
