Afghan minister wants Bollywood off Afghan TV
Afghan Minister criticizes broadcasting of Bollywood, Western films (PakTribune)
Afghanistan's minister of Information and Culture, Sayed Makhdom Raheen, has criticized the state television and cable services for broadcasting too many Bollywood Indian movies and Western films. He called on media outlets to air pure Afghan and Islamic cultural movies rather than what he called "vain misleading things".
Bollywood vain? misleading? No way!
In any case, this seems to be just another case of a policitican promoting 'values' as a political ploy.
