Our Company was subsidiary of Sri Adhikari Brothers Television Network Limited (SABTNL) by way of“control of the Board” exercised by the management of SABTNL. An amendment was made in the Articles of Association of our Company, by inserting Article 46 (g) whereby Sri Adhikari Brothers Television Network Limited was empowered to control the composition of Board of Directors of our Company; thereby making the Company a “Board Controlled” subsidiary of SABTNL as defined in Section 4 (a) of Companies Act. Subsequently, the clause has been deleted on adoption of new Articles as per special resolution passed by the members of our Company in the Annual General Meeting held on May 16, 2006. Since then, our Company has ceased to be the subsidiary of Sri Adhikari Brothers Television Network Limited
