He demanded immediate restoration of these news channels as a token of respect for the freedom of the press.<br \/>\nSirajul Haq said that the media was the ears, eyes and tongue of the naion and the closure of the TV channels was tantamount to blindfolding the nation\u2019s eyes and chopping off its tongue.<br \/>\nThe government was rendering thousands of workers in the media.
