Spy Report: Y S Jagan armtwists new TV channels!
It has been a long wait for the two new television channels – TV5 and NTV – to see the light of the day and the staff working in these channels are getting frustrated over the inordinate delay in their launch.
Inquiries revealed that the reason for this delay is Y S Jaganmohan Reddy, son of Chief Minister Dr Y S Rajasekhar Reddy. It is learnt Jagan, who is virtually ruling the Congress politics by proxy, is using all his tactics to armtwist the promoters of these two channels – for the simple reason that he does not want any competition to his proposed TV channel, expected to be launched along with his Telugu daily "Saakshi." He did not even allow the actual brain behind the channel to jump into TV5 and offered her an increased pay packet.
Simultaneously, Jagan used his father's influence and prepared dossiers about the illegal activities of the promoters of the above two channels. He managed to stall licence to TV5 and then, negotiate with the promoter of NTV to defer his plans to launch a news channel. It is learnt Jagan is prevailing upon the promoters of these two channels to confine themselves to mere entertainment channels or religious ones.
