As the union government’s directive to private channels to shift from foreign to Indian satellites begins to kick into effect, the ministry of information and broadcasting (MIB) and the department of space (DOS) will prepare an action plan for those channels that beam content overseas so that their footprint abroad is not curtailed by the move, people aware of the development said.
According to an official, the MIB has received representations from the broadcasting industry that moving from foreign to Indian satellites could impact the broadcast of their programmes abroad and in some cases also result in breach of contract, given that some channels have signed long-term agreements with the overseas companies.
