World Television Day being marked

Kathmandu, 21 November: The World Television Day is being marked globally today around the theme, ‘TV makes a difference’. On this occasion, discussions programmes have been organized on especially the usefulness of television and its challenges.

The World Television Day started to be observed as per the decision of the United Nations General Assembly. The UN General Assembly on 17 December 1996 decided to mark 21 November every year as the World TV Day.
