To prevent monopolistic practices by cable distribution companies — local cable operators (LCOs) and multi-service operators (MSOs) — the government has sought the intervention of the sector regulator. As outlined by information and broadcasting minister Manish Tewari last month, the I&B ministry has now written to the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (Trai) seeking its recommendations in the matter. The move comes after the government received several complaints and queries on the alleged monopolistic practices of large cable distribution networks in several areas/towns in the country.
