News Broadcasters Association (NBA), the body of news broadcasters across India, has express "shock and dismay" over the fresh notification by TRAI on digitizing cable distribution.In a press release, the NBA said the "notification has legitimised the very practice the NBA had hoped would be ended, i.e. the payment of steep "carriage fees" by broadcasters".
"The primary purpose of digitisation was to increase the number of channels broadcasted. The objective was to give consumers greater choice and to eliminate the phenomenon of "carriage fees", which were being charged due to capacity constraints", the release said.
