I had a chance to visit China and in the hotel room I was pleasantly surprised to find Zee Music although no other news channel from India were shown. I found PTV Global and PTV News were shown.
I was horrified the way the channel was showing India in the Bad light every other day they will have programs on Kashmir showing our security forces torturing , raping citizens and violating human rights.
They were also showing Gujarat violence,Babri Mosque being destroyed, calling J&K government as puppet government. On the other hand the whole state media was focusing on praising Musharaf and denouncing Benazir & Nawaz. When the whole world was denouncing China for Tibetthey were calling Tibetans a group of looters supported by India.
There state media has a very narrow and limited vision of whole world. I am happy that such channels are banned.

There is no question of showing India in a bad light on purpose. Perhaps it is what is shown. India is supposed to be the worlds largest democracy or is it? Are you afraid of Pakistani TV?
