      NBMM says,Telecast of our BM programs would be started soon, as per assurance given to them by Doordarshan Director Mr.Sakya Sundar Dhar.How far is he equipped with central directives,only time would tell. And at the other hand two more organisations BMSU & BMSP are gearing up for the 501 hrs road blockade for non implementation of telecast & broadcast.We have a doubt who is correct & who is wrong.

He was born to a Xatriya Manipuri family. His father Sri Sanatan Pandit was a Sanskrit teacher and mother Srimati Malati Devi, a house wife.
