RE: 10 MSM (Sony) channels shall be removed
The CAS was introduced by the authority to help consumers to have a choice of watching channels of their like and subsequently a-la-carte channel system was introduced where the channels were made available on individual basis. But like any other law this had also its shortcomings. Now the broadcasters have started exploiting those loopholes. This very thing of individual base channel choice is being turned against customers. You can watch the whole package for rs 100 but if you want only one channel then it may cost you almost the same amount. Same is happening here. If you check the a-la-carte price list of msm channels then it will more then 500 pm. Then who will subscribe them on a-la-carte basis? It is the play of these broadcasters they want to damage this a-la-carte system so that they can argue that this system is failure and hence they should be allowed to offer channels in package but with increased cost.
