RAWALPINDI: The Media Study Forum has welcomed the appointment of Arshad Khan as a new managing director, Pakistan Television Corporation (PTV), Islamabad.

The forum chairman, Ilyas Bhatti, hoped that new management would resolve the 20 years old seniority and promotion issue of the PTV employees.

The Islamabad High Court has already sought comments from the PTV MD regarding the non-implementation of 1989 Review Board judgment in letter and spirit by January 16.

It may be recalled that 27 PTV Union leaders were arrested and jailed for one year and terminated in 1978.

Late Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto, had ordered reinstatement of all sacked workers but PTV has not implemented the Review Board judgment till now, said the Forum chairman.
