Terming the pay scales of the 9th Newspaper Wage Board unrealistic, Newspaper Owners’ Association of Bangladesh (Noab) yesterday said no newspaper was capable of implementing the 9th Wage Board.

The Newspaper Owners’ Association of Bangladesh (NOAB) files a petition with the Supreme Court, praying it to vacate its earlier order that cleared the way for the government to publish the gazette notification on implementing the recommendation of ninth wage board for journalists.

Journalists condemn newspaper owners' legal move to postpone implementation of the 9th wage board.
