Effect of load shedding on television broadcast

I was experiencing 16 hours of load shedding so it was difficult to update with recent news on television in normal hours. Hence, whenever the power comes in, I used to wakeup and turn on the television. Some days back, it was early morning around 4:00 AM, I saw strange notice of ‘No broadcast due to load shredding’ on most of the Nepali channels. When I explored the news, I came to know that there were more than five Nepali television channels broadcasting 24 hours. They were highly affected due to load shredding for the production, advertisement management and broadcasting the programs. Because of the same, they recently formed an organization ‘Television Broadcasters Nepal’ and announced ‘Emergency on broadcasting’. They stopped broadcasting 00:00 to 05:00 every day. This was not the prime time of watching television but if they start increasing the time like electricity cut then that will definitely effect our ‘right to information’. Few weeks back government has declared emergency in electricity sector. Let us see who else will declare next ‘emergency’.
