History

[edit]

PTV Home started broadcasting on 26 November 1964[2][3] in West Pakistan and on 25 December 1964 in East Pakistan (the current Bangladesh).[4] The broadcasts were limited to Lahore and Dacca at first (the Dhaka station would later become a part of Bangladesh Television upon Bangladesh's independence in 1971), before extending to Rawalpindi and Islamabad in 1965 and Karachi in 1966.[2] The Lahore station moved from channel 9 to channel 5 in November 1968, increasing its power.[5] The basic PTV network was completed in 1974, after the start of the microwave network in 1973, and ahead of the start of color broadcasts in 1975.[6]

One thought on “Cannabaceae”

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
