Bigg Boss, Rakhi ka Insaaf to air after 11 pm, says govt

Faced with mounting complaints from TV viewers and women outfits about objectionable contents, the government has ordered channels airing TV shows Big Boss and Rakhi ka Insaaf to broadcast them only between 11 pm and 5 am, virtually bracketing them as only for adult viewing.

Both the shows are not for universal viewing and can be aired only in the scheduled time slot, Information and Broadcasting (I&B) Ministry officials said.

The ministry officials claimed this is the first time that the ministry has compulsorily changed time slots of popular TV shows.

The ministry also banned Telegu SS Music channel for a period of seven days for allegedly showing nudity.
