The Ministry of Information and Broadcasting (MIB) has made it mandatory for all platforms and carriers to carry the DD Kisan channel, launched earlier today, on the prime band.
Additionally, the MIB also issued separate memorandums to both IPTV platforms as well direct to home operators (DTH) in this regard. The Ministry made it obligatory for every IPTV and DTH service provider to provide DD Kisan channel to their subscribers, irrespective of any bouquet(s) or a-la-carte channel(s) being subscribed by them.
The ministry’s memorandum said that DD Kisan had been added to the list of channels to be compulsorily carried on all platforms.
The MIB also said it had been decided to include DD Kisan channel under the Hindi infotainment genre, to be mandatorily included in all services and asked service providers to display it on full television screen.
