Subject: Regarding the ban of explicit sexual scenes on television.
Sir,
Through your esteemed news channel, I would like to show concern towards the increased explicitness of television programs in showing sexual scenes. Television is such a means of communication that is watched by every stratum of people, be it kids, students, adults, or even elders. Such an open showcase of intimate scenes not only influences the kids and adolescents but also distracts the adults to go on the wrong path, spoils relationships, affects the sentiments of the elders, and spoils the society as a whole.
Recent reports have shown that these explicit sexual contents leave a desensitized and causal impact on the entire population. Thus, such scenes are required to be banned to show explicitly on national television to prevent such insensitiveness and allowing kids to know things at right time. I request you to kindly throw light upon this issue so that concerned authorities could take necessary actions in this regard.
Thanking you,
Yours Sincerely,
Georgia.
