AFTER MTV Splitsvilla contestants alleged corruption and sleaze by the organisers in MiD DAY and then on national television, two MTV Roadies contestants have now slammed the organisers. While an aspiring model told MiD DAY he got no compensation for a serious injury that happened during the show and was in fact humiliated, another girl said the organisers encouraged her to use abusive language to push up viewership.
MTV Roadies, incidentally, had been pulled up by the Information and Broadcasting Ministry in June end for promoting obscene and abusive language. For three days, the channel had to run a note apologising for its actions.
