Can TV serials violate the law?
Abstract:
Recently, the widely-watched TV serials Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi and Kudrat had doctors informing parents-to-be of the sex of the foetus. As the largest public service broadcasting unit, Doordarshan has a strict code for programmes and advertisements, with two preview committees to weed out 'objectionable' material in serials before telecast. Interestingly, they didn't find anything objectionable with Kudrat.
