NEW DELHI: The Delhi Transport Corporation (DTC) has issued a gag order to its employees asking them not to make any "statement or opinion" about the government.
The May 2 order said instances of employees making a statement or opinion about the government have come to notice and "this type of activities tarnish the image of the corporation in the eyes of the general public".
"Non-compliance of these instructions will attract strict disciplinary action against defaulter(s)," an order dated May 2 issued by the public relations department of the DTC read. Though the order did not ban employees from talking to the "media" specifically, a DTC official said that the chairman wants the media to only reach him.
He added that the DTC staff have been banned from talking to the media.
