There are now a lot of people in India who are looking forward for the digitalization of Cable TV service. But, the excitement of these people was seized with the announcement that the deadline which was suppose to be July 1 was put off by four months.
The announcement was given by the government today since they have found that the metros of Mumbai, Delhi, Chennai and Kolkata were not ready for the said intervention. The ministry of Information and Broadcasting decided to put off the deadline which now has a new date which is on 31st of October of the current fiscal year.
Since this is surely not a good image for the government, this time they will be monitoring this project more vigorously in order for people to get what they are expecting to have. If the new deadline would not be met again, then surely it would raise a lot of negative comments from the people of India.
