Other than the 25 government channels, the rest are up to the choice of the consumer, whether he chooses to select a FTA channel or a paid one is upto him. This is in fact beneficial to broadcasters; to cite my own example, I didn't use to subscribe to some English channels because I would be forced to buy the largest bouqet, but now I plan to.TRAI needs to re-think about this new tariff. It's unfair to broadcasters'. Only FTA channels are benefiting from this new tariff. They will gain viewers which is unfair to paid broadcasters' who invest in good quality content. As an example most users won't be willing to pay for a paid channel like NDTV India when they get ABP News for free. It also ends the purpose of buying free dish. They needs to issue a new tariff where users pay NCF of Rs.100 + GST where the user get access to DD National, DD News, DD feed of their region, Local channels of MSOs, Services by DTH provider and Teleshopping channels. Rest of the channels users need to subscribe according to their choice. To make things fair broadcaster' should be also asked to introduce language and genre specific bouquet. English language viewers doesn't need to buy bouquet that includes channels of other languages. Nor does Sports fans should need to buy a GEC channel which he or she doesn't watches.
