Aid excludes non-accredited journalists
Naam Tamilar Katchi chief co-ordinator Seeman on Saturday urged Chief Minister M.K. Stalin to provide relief to families of all journalists, including those working for online platforms, who succumbed to COVID-19, instead of only considering accredited mediapersons. Mr. Seeman said it was disappointing to note that the State government’s decision excluded non-accredited journalists, especially those working for online websites and channels. “Accreditation press cards are not available to all journalists. Only senior journalists associated with well-known media houses usually get government accreditation cards,” the NTK leader said.More Related News
