Chairman Dhamala has also said that they will not tolerate attacking the media industry with revenge. Kailash Sirohia's arrest has been wrong. It is our conclusion and conclusion that the arrest was made because of the intention to spread the news, because of the writing of the news,' said Dhamala. Dhamala says that although anyone can be brought under investigation by completing the
process, Kailash Sirohia, the president of Kantipur, has been arrested in disgrace. 'Citizenship can be investigated. Complete the process and investigate But the manner in which the Nepali media industry was attacked in a vengeful and malicious way. That is not acceptable to us . We are ready to pay any price for that,' he said.
He also says that Home Minister Ravi Lamichhane has made the media world a star because of writing news against him. Home Minister Ravi Lamichhane has always made the media industry and the media a star. He always attacked the Nepali media and journalists while speaking. The beauty of democracy is criticism Opposite is . Our home minister could never tolerate opposition. When Kantipur and all the media started writing that his name was mentioned in the cooperative fraud case, he got scared, he said.
Suggesting Home Minister Lamichhane, Dhamala said, 'If I were the Home Minister, investigate me, I will immediately leave the post . I wanted to investigate and find out the truth. On the contrary, he arrested the owner of the prestigious media house Kantipur from the office. Until today, in any democratic country, certain methods, procedures and standards are followed when arresting media operators and journalists. Arrests are not made on the basis of hachuvaka .'
The president of Kantipur Media Group, Sirohia, was arrested from the office on Tuesday on the pretext that the citizenship number given by the district administration matched that of another person.
