A Consumers Association in multi-ethnic Malaysia has called for a ban on Tamil serial dramas from India that depict violence.
Consumer Association of Penang education officer NV Subbarow said that many homes "were left neglected as the families were busy watching these shows every day."
Local daily Tamil Nesan quoted him as saying that the "negative scenes in these dramas have had a negative influence on the ethnic Indian community, with many youths involved in crime".
Mr Subbarow asked the censorship board to come down hard and ban these dramas, adding that the local ethnic Indian community should also boycott these dramas.
