US court suspends Trump's decision to shut down VOA

New York: A New York court has temporarily suspended the Trump administration's decision to shut down Voice of America (VOA).

According to an American newspaper, more than 1,200 journalists and employees of Voice of America have been reinstated under the decision of a New York court.

The American newspaper says that the judge has prevented the government from dissolving VOA or firing its staff, but he has not issued any instructions regarding the restoration of Voice of America.

The Trump administration had ordered the closure of seven federal agencies through an executive order, including Voice of America.

The court's decision has blocked the Trump administration's move, calling it unreasonable.
