NEW DELHI: Denying that Doordarshan towers had become obsolete or were not being renovated, the Parliament has been informed that 62 out of 67 Doordarshan Studio Centres have been made fully digital (except camera chains).
 
The procurement of camera chains is in progress, according to Minister of State for Information and Broadcasting Rajyavardhan Rathore.
 
He said that modernization of Doordarshan Kendras - replacing old ageing equipment and augmentation/ upgradation of facilities - was a continuous process.
 
The minster added that schemes in this regard are formulated and implemented from time to time, depending upon availability of resources/funds.
 
Of the 67 Studio Centres prior to 11th Plan, 23 are fully digital Studio Centres; 31 are partially digital Studio Centres; and 13 are analog Studio Centres.
 
Replying to another question, Rathore said that Doordarshan has a network of 1412 analogue transmitters.
 
In addition, there are eight digital High Power TV Transmitters (two each at Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata and Chennai), which are technically ready since December 2014 and are under test.
