He said there were "numerous complaints" about the shows, BBC News reported. There are six Indian soap operas running in Afghanistan, providing vital revenue for TV stations, but they have been criticised for being "un-Islamic" by hardliners in the country. Several private Afghan TV channels, including Tolo , Ariana and Shamshad , broadcast the Indian soap operas dubbed in Pashto and Persian. The first Indian serial to be aired in Afghanistan was the hit soap opera Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi , which was launched by Tolo channel in 2005. Among other Indian Dramas aired in Afghanistan are Kahani Ghar Ghar Ki and Kasauti Zindagi Ki . <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Kzk1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/1/13/Kzk1.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a> Afghan Information and Culture Minister Abdul Karim Khurram has said action will be taken against TV channels that do not stop airing the Indian serials by April 15. Afghanistan's Parliament recently passed a resolution seeking to bar TV programmes from showing dancing and other practices that are "un-Islamic".

All activities come to a grinding halt at 8.30 p.m. and the roads are empty for half an hour all over Afghanistan. People do not take telephone calls and most of the mobiles are off, even the marriage ceremonies are programmed in a way that the guests are able to watch the soap. Two separate TV sets, one each for the male and female guests are installed at the marriage venues and all activity is stopped for half an hour. Sharing the same family and cultural traditions and values, the Afghans relate themselves greatly with the Indian family serials. The most patronizing the housewives and children who don have much outside activities and entertainment available to them.<img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/shocked.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":shocked:" title="Shocked    :shocked:" data-shortname=":shocked:" />In Mazar-e-Sharif, during the broadcast period one day, the thieves removed all the four tyres of a Toyota Land Crusier parked outside a house and put a signboard saying "Thanks Tulsi".<img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/lol.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":lol:" title="LOL    :lol:" data-shortname=":lol:" />Link - <a href="http://www.dailyindia.com/show/222293.php/Clerics-demand-ban-on-Indian-soap-operas-on-Afghan-TV-channels" target="_blank">http://www.dailyindia.com/show/222293.php/Clerics-demand-ban-on-Indian-soap-operas-on-Afghan-TV-channels</a>F.Y.I<img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/happy.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":)" title="Happy    :)" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
