Kandahar Hijac, Mumbai cited terrorist attack
The government cited live coverage of the operation of security forces and losses from it. It is written in the advisory- If you look at the previous incidents, they show the importance of responsible reporting. The coverage of unrestricted coverage of incidents such as Kargil War, 2008 Mumbai terror attacks and Kandahar kidnapping had adversely affected national interests.
In fact, at the time of Kargil War, the media reported the battlefield directly, which showed the army movement, position, and plan. This gave an idea of the strategy of the Indian Army to the enemy (Pakistani Army and intruders).
Similarly, during the 1999 Kandahar plane hijack, the Indian media started showing emotional live appeals to the families of passengers. This gave the terrorists a chance to put emotional pressure on India, and the government was forced to leave the terrorists.
