NEW DELHI:Even as it said that
an agreement under the Reference
Interconnect Order (RIO) should
be for both ala carte and bouquets,
Hathway today questioned why multi system operators like Den and Siticable were being given greater discounts by Taj TV for
distribution of their channels.
Hathway counsel Arun Kathpalia said that the DAS Regulations of 2012 also provided for negotiations that were non-discriminatory,transparent and on reasonable terms and did not merely insist on an RIO.
In the ongoing hearing before the Tribunal in the cases linked to Taj TV signals for Turner and Zee TV, Kathpalia said the Regulation says
that the broadcaster or distributor ‘may’ seek inter-connection but also provides for mutual
agreement within 60 days of request.
