“NDTV India” has in the past been accused of compromising India’s national security. In last November NDTV India was was given a token 1 day ban for its reporting of the January, 2016 Pathankot attack.

This action is apparently being taken after previous I&B minister Venkaiah Naidu asked the channel for a representation after it, in the government’s view, seriously compromised national security while covering a terror attack.
Government sources said while the channel kept informally regretting the coverage, no representation was made.
The channel instead moved court and told SC that it would not apologise for the coverage and it was under no such breach.

The channel had violated clause 6.1 of the policy which states that permission granted shall be revoked if the channel is found to transmit content inconsistent with public interest or national security.

A couple of sources in the ministry, confirmed that NDTV India is likely to go off air. The channel didn’t give a satisfactory answer and also refused to apologise which is supposed to have prompted this possible ban.
