NEW DELHI, January 22: Hindi commentator and journalist Padmashri Jasdev Singh today disassociated himself from Doordarshan and All India Radio. Talking to newspersons here, he said: “The decision to leave Doordarshan and All India Radio has been very hard and painful but I has been forced to take this step due to the indifferent and humiliating attitude of the authorities”.

Jasdev Singh retired as Deputy Director General Doordarshan in 1989. He lamented that he had to part with Doordharshan and AIR, “which gave me name and fame,” in such a manner. He also expressed his gratitude to the print and electronic media for appreciating his work over the years. He also made it clear that he was only disassociating himself from Doordarshan and All India Radio and not from the electronic media.
