MUMBAI: Life has come full circle for Allahabad-based multi-system operator (MSO) Silverline Entertainment.
In a dramatic turn of events, the MSO has got a permanent licence
from the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting (MIB) more than a month after its provisional licence was cancelled by the
same ministry.
The MIB had cancelled Silverline’s provisional licence on 3 September due to denial of security clearance by the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) for allegedly giving false
declaration to Bank of Baroda for securing a loan up to Rs 1.43 crore (Rs 14.3 million).
Silverline Entertainment proprietor Santosh Gupta told TelevisionPost.com that he made a representation to the MHA and the MIB seeking reason for not giving security clearance.
The MHA reviewed Gupta’s
application and subsequently granted security clearance to the MSO.Once the MHA gave the
security clearance, the MIB expedited Silverline’s application for permanent licence to operate in digital addressable system (DAS)
notified areas of Uttar Pradesh except Agra,Ghaziabad, Kanpur, Lucknow, Meerut and Varanasi.
