Breaking Star India Disconnection Notice against Airtel

[Shantanu Upadhyay]

Exactly we always paid Rs. 100 for our cable tv connection, roughly 10 years back. May be at the start we were paying Rs. 75. But once airtel digital tv was launched in 2008, we moved from the old cable network to airtel.

In my state MP 10 years back in nearby villages cable operator used to charge ₹100/mth, in suburban area about ₹200/,mth & in cities it varied from ₹200-300/mth.

Bro, in metropolitan cities, mandatory CAS was introduced around 2004 itself and it pushed the cost of cable tv connection from 120-150 to around 240-280, depends on the area. However, the services availed through CAS should be deemed as digital transmission instead of analog, though both are provided by the same local cable guy.

Chennai is a metro too. But we had always been paying Rs. 100 for a long time until I migrated to Airtel a decade back. Even now in some places in chennai there are a few people who pay Rs. 125 per month for a normal cable connection without digital STB but in my area for a basic package with all regional channels including Sun TV they charge Rs. 175 for Digital Set Top Box connection.

I hope by later does not mean 40-50 years as there are many case which are pending more than 50 years, look at Kaveri water case whose verdict came today. It was registered 120 years ago

I agree bro.See the positive side.Law takes its own course and verdict comes means at least we go on taking the right steps.
