NBA Demands Immediate Suspension Of Republic TV's IBF Membership
Amidst Republic TV’s TRP and ‘Chatgate’ crisis, the News Broadcasters Association on January 18 demanded the Indian Broadcasting Foundation to suspend Republic’s membership. Besides, the association demanded to exclude Republic TV from the BARC’s rating system until the TRP case is completed. Citing the Chatgate as a power play, the NBA has stated the BARC-Republic scandal has resulted in a financial loss to other broadcasters, to which BARC owes an explanation.
