Re: Commonwealth Games Melbourne 2006
PTV’s small mindedness:
WHILE watching the highlights of the Commonwealth Games every night on PTV, I was disappointed to note that the sound became muted every time the Indian national anthem was played during an award presentation where an Indian won the gold medal. Also, while televising the highlights of the closing day ceremony, PTV abruptly cut off the segments that featured Bollywood stars.
PTV has to seriously rethink its censor policy, or else be ready with scissors to chop off most of the opening and closing day ceremonies of the 2010 Commonwealth Games to be held in Delhi. The presence of Bollywood stars, with their song and dance routines, at those ceremonies is a foregone conclusion.
