The information ministry issued the order on Monday, a day after the Cabinet Committee on Law and Order decided to end its broadcast, bdnews24 reported.
The decision followed allegations that the Indian preacher&rsquo;s speeches, sermons and interpretation of Islamic issues were "inspiring acts of terrorism" and radicalising youths.
The information ministry order read: &ldquo;Based on the Cabinet committee&rsquo;s decision, free-to-air TV channel Peace TV&rsquo;s downlink permission has been cancelled for violating downlink conditions.&rdquo;
The ban comes in the wake of bloody terror attacks in Bangladesh this month.
