GUWAHATI: Today is World Television Day. It is observed every year on the 21st of November. The United Nations adopted a resolution to this effect in 1996 in recognition of the increasing impact of the audio-visual media on decision-making and its potential role in sharpening the focus on other major issues.
Television was thus acknowledged as a major tool in informing, channeling and influencing public opinion and represents communication and globalization in the contemporary world.
