Lahore High Court (LHC) has accepted the petition for hearing regarding PTV’s venture with Indian TV channel for telecast of cricket matches.
A bench headed by Chief Justice of Lahore High Court Justice Ijaz Ahmed Chaudhry heard the petition seeking directions to stop alleged joint venture of PTV with an Indian TV channel on Thursday.
The petitioner lawyer took the stance that the administration of the State TV was inking an agreement of showing cricket matches with an Indian TV channel which was against the national interest. He prayed the court to issue a stay order in this regard.
Chief Justice Lahore High Court accepted the petition for hearing and summoned Federal Minister for Information and MD PTV on November 04.
