In opposition to government's negative attitude towards regional newspapers, the North East Newspaper Association has decided not to publish all Assam government's news as well as photographs for three-day.
Any news or photographs and government advertisements will not be published in any of the regional newspapers of Assam on March 10, March 11 and March 12 in protest against Assam government's lack interest towards the problems faced by newspaper houses in Assam, informed the association.
The newspaper houses are reportedly facing major financial crisis due to non-clearance of the payments against the advertisements of the government of Assam. The association also informed that the advertisement rates for the newspapers of the State have not been revised since 2014.
