Ban On NDTV India Put On Hold, Says Channel

**New Delhi**: NDTV said on Monday that the one-day ban on its Hindi news channel, NDTV India, has been put on hold by the Information and Broadcasting Ministry.

The decision was taken following a meeting between I&B Minister M Venkaiah Naidu and NDTV promoter Prannoy Roy.

The Ministry of Information and Broadcasting on Thursday directed the news channel to go off air from the midnight of November 8 to midnight of November 9 for allegedly breaching cable TV norms in its coverage of the January 2 terror attack on the Pathankot Indian Air Force base.
