Delhi HC issues notice to Govt. of India and Trai on Cas
NEW DELHI: The Delhi High Court today issued notices to the Government of India and Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (Trai) on a petition filed by an MSO body relating to conditional access system (Cas).
The MSO Alliance, an apex body of some of the big multi-system operators in the country, has petitioned that broadcast and cable regulator Trai and the government ought to come out with a clear cut stand on Cas’ implementation and other related issues.
The next hearing of the case has been fixed on 2 November.
This could also mean that any recommendation from Trai on Cas and related issues over the next fortnight, as is being said by Trai, would be subject to court directives, if any, on the matter.
The MSO Alliance comprises companies like Hathway Datacom, IMC (INCablenet), Siti Cable, Sumangli (Sun TV’s parent company), Trinity and RPG Netcom, amongst others.
