Following reports that AP government is mulling to takeover Sakshi media group, the owner of Sakshi Group and YSR Congress President YS Jaganmohan Reddy said his channel and paper were established for the cause of people and not to support Naidu and his government.
“Naidu has been resorting to the curtailing of freedom of speech media and press by blocking television channels, including Sakshi, for objective reporting. This is a bad precedent,” Jagan said and exhorted other media groups to come forward and condemn the blockade of Sakshi news channel in Andhra Pradesh.
“Naidu’s government curtailed freedom of speech by obstructing the TV channel from telecasting news on Kapu reservation,” Jagan added. Earlier today and late yesterday, there were reports that Sakshi TV’s programs were blocked by the area operators in Visakhapatnam and surrounding areas.
