UCN Cable Network sets new Daughters’ Day world record
Mumbai: UCN Cable Network has set a new Daughters’ Day world record with a unique initiative encouraging people to feature their daughters’ names on house name plates. The extensive drive was recognised by the Golden Book of World Records on the occasion of International Daughters’ Day which is celebrated every year on 26 September.
Naming the drive as the ‘largest campaign of displaying daughter’s name at house nameplate,’ The Golden Book of World Records awarded a provisional certificate to the Nagpur-based company.
“UCN Cable has created history with this initiative that will go a long way in celebrating daughters and encouraging them to be achievers in life,” said Golden Book of World Records head Dr Manish Vishnoei, congratulating UCN Cable Network.
The Golden Book of World Records recognises and honours national and global acts and events that are unique in terms of scale, precedence, or format.
The Daughters’ Day initiative undertaken by UCN Cable Network was found to be the first and fulfilling all parameters and requirements on assessment, following which its application for the world record was accepted, said the statement.

JC Flowers withdraws NCLT plea against Dish TV over EGM demand
Move eases pressure on DTH firm as long-running shareholder dispute cools
MUMBAI: In a breather for Dish TV India, JC Flowers Asset Reconstruction has withdrawn its petition before the National Company Law Tribunal seeking directions to convene an extraordinary general meeting.
The development was disclosed by Dish TV in a regulatory filing, confirming that the petitioner chose to withdraw the case during a hearing at the Mumbai bench of the tribunal. A detailed order from the bench is still awaited.
The petition, originally filed under Sections 98 to 100 of the Companies Act, 2013, sought to push for an extraordinary general meeting to address governance issues at the company. The case had its roots in a prolonged shareholder tussle dating back to 2021, when Yes Bank, then the largest shareholder, was at odds with the promoter group led by Subhash Chandra over board reconstitution.
JC Flowers had stepped into the picture as an assignee of Yes Bank’s stressed assets, effectively continuing the legal push initiated earlier. The withdrawal now signals a pause, if not a closure, to that chapter of dispute.
While the reasons behind the withdrawal have not been formally detailed, the move reduces immediate legal pressure on Dish TV, which has been navigating both operational and regulatory challenges in recent years.
For now, the focus shifts back to the company’s business fundamentals, even as the legal dust settles, at least temporarily, on one of its more closely watched shareholder battles.
