Kaziranga documentary lands BBC in trouble

New Delhi: A documentary done by a BBC journalist showcasing India's aggressive protection measures at Kaziranga national park in Assam has invited trouble for the world's oldest national broadcasting organisation.

 

As per a report published in Time of India, the National Tiger Conservation Authority (NTCA), that governs all tiger reserves in the country has imposed a ban on the network and its journalist for five years.

The report further mentions that documentary titled `One World: Killing for Conservation' claimed forest guards in Kaziranga had been given powers to shoot and kill anyone they think was a threat to rhinos.
