Sunil K Gupta, Secretary, TRAI told BusinessLine , “We have asked all Distribution Platform Operators (DPOs) to start a consumer information channel on their platform. We expect all DPOs to start running this from Wednesday.”
“In order to ensure that all stakeholders are making appropriate efforts to seek options from consumers (regarding the channels that they want to watch), we have made internal arrangements to get reports from the DPOs. This will help us review the status of compliance and the level of choices exercised by the consumers and see the effectiveness of the implementation of the new regulatory framework on the ground,” Gupta added.
