A two-member bench of the Bangladesh HC asked the information secretary, the chairman of Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission (BTRC), the police chief, the director general of state-run Bangladesh Television and owner of cable TV operating agencies to explain in four weeks, ‘why orders will not be issued to stop transmission’ of the three channels.

The bench comprising justices Mainul Islam Chowdhury and Mohammad Ashraful Kamal issued the rule.

The writ also alleged that no Bangladeshi TV channels were allowed to broadcast in India while the Indian channels were operating in Bangladesh in big numbers.
