The Government announced the formation of Government Cable TV Corporation and even appointed officials as M.D. and Regional Directors. Having distributed lakhs and lakhs of colour TV sets to the public, it is indeed a step in the right direction to provide cable TV by the Government itself so that the facility reaches the poor at a nominal monthly rate. Unfortunately, nothing happened further. In Ramanathapuram, the present monthly subscription for cable TV is Rs. 130, which is abnormal and beyond the reach of the middle-class and the poor.
It is expected that the above rate may increase further. There are no address and name of the operator in the receipts issued for collection and no one knows as to who is the operator in Ramanathapuram. I appeal to the officials concerned to check the excess monthly charges and direct the service-provider to issue proper receipts for all collections. It is better if the Government starts its own cable TV service.
