Agartala, Nov 17 (UNI) Tripura Chief Minister Biplab Kumar Deb appealed self regulation for media to contribute better in the process of development while addressing a seminar on ‘Journalism, Ethics and Challenges in Digital Era’ at Agartala Press Club last evening as part of the celebration of National Press Day 2018.
This is for the first time in Tripura the state government supported for National Press Day celebration, even at sub-division level calling upon the press community and media to be truthful and responsible to ensure good governance in democratic set up.
“I do mistakes but never tell lie, cheat and propagate falsehood since my childhood. I always warn my cabinet colleagues, officers and close associates not to lie even if it is necessary for protection of government face. It may be because I am not a mature politician,” said Deb in a statement.
