In a hurried manner DD News is declared an Independent office after separating it from DDK Delhi. The decision is taken at high level and when we found that no consideration is given to employees concern like where from the salary will be disbursed, how staff going on LTC will be given advance and how leave encashment will be paid as there is no fund in DD News and administrative set up is not enough to handle such big number of staff. We immediately met Sr.G.M.(P) and he called DDA of DD News and it is decided that resources will be made available in next three/four days.
