Among non-news and current affairs, the ministry
doled out five new licences, out of which two
are given to Indore-based Enter 10 Television Pvt
Ltd for the launch of a Bhojpuri movie channel,
Bhojpuri Cinema, and Luck TV.
Chennai-based Meenakshi Networks bagged a
licence for Tamil entertainment channel
Meenakshi TV, while Sairam Media Networks got
a licence for Sairam TV.
Finally, Kolkata-based advertising agency T
Sarkar Pvt Ltd also got the licence to launch its
first channel, Orange TV. The channel was slated
for launch in March this year. But the wait for
the licence had delayed the launch.
As of 30 September, the total count of permitted
private satellite TV channels in India has gone up
to 821. Out of this, 404 are news and current
affairs channels, while the remaining 417 are
non-news and current affairs channels.
A total of 693 channels have permission to
uplink as well as downlink, while 35 have
permission only to uplink and not downlink in
India. There are 93 channels which are uplinked
from abroad and have permission to downlink in
India.
