The Jayalalithaa government in Tamil Nadu on
Friday announced its decision to nationalise
private cable TV operations and revive the state-
run Arasu Cable TV Corporation. In his customary address spelling out AIADMK
government’s policies, Governor S.S. Barnala said there has been an “overwhelming demand” from the public for revival of Arasu Cable TV
Corporation and government would do so “in public interest.” Private cable TV operations will be nationalised
without affecting local cable operators, Mr. Barnala
said. The Arasu Cable TV Corporation was started in July
2008 by the previous DMK government when Mr.
Karunanidhi family’s relationship with Marans had soured. After the patch-up between the families,
the Corporation had remained dormant. The nationalisation of cable TV business was one
of the promises made by the AIADMK in the April
13 Assembly polls.
