Download PDF Hundreds of television licence seekers were seen standing in long queues in front of different branches of Janata Bank yesterday, amid rumours that police and Rapid Action Battalion were seizing unlicensed television sets in the capital.
However, the government advised all to inform the police immediately if anyone attempts to blackmail them in the name of checking TV licences.
Dhaka Metropolitan Police Commissioner denied conducting any such drive while Bangladesh Television (BTV) authorities said such moves should not take place as the last date for renewal of television licences has already been extended till February 28.
Many residents of Badda, Shyampur and Malibagh areas left home on Wednesday fearing arrest by the law enforcers for not having television licence.
Some people in the guise of law enforcers might have conducted the fraudulent drives, BTV officials said.
