The Udalguri District Election Officer (DEO) has written to the Additional Chief Electoral Officer of Assam seeking action against Chief Managing Editor of News Live TV Syed Zarir Hussain.

The Udalguri DEO has alleged that Zarir Hussain ‘seems’ to have propagated a ‘paid news’ in news broadcast in News Live TV on Thursday.

“…a news was broadcasted in News Live TV Assam at around 08-00AM today i.e. 01-04-2021 where replying to query of Nandan Pratim Sarma Bordoloi, Zarir Hussain directly mentioned that ‘Rihon Daimari is definitely on backfoot’ which seems to be a paid news,” alleged Udalguri DEO.

“This is for your kind information and necessary action,” Udalguri DEO added in his letter to the Additional CEO of Assam.
