Information & Broadcasting ministry’s order of a day-long black out of NDTV India for its coverage of the Pathankot terrorist attack has shocked one and all.
Reacting to the same, Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal said he hoped the media channels across the country will go off air for a day to express their solidarity with the Hindi news channel.

Several other politicians like Rahul Gandhi, Mamata Banerjee and Omar Abdullah have also condemned the move on Twitter.
