Broadcasters want OTT to be kept outside broadcast bill's purview

By Economic Times - 4 months ago
The Indian Broadcasting and Digital Foundation (IBDF) has requested the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting (MIB) to exclude OTT platforms from the Broadcasting Services Regulation Bill 2023. The IBDF argued that treating linear TV and OTT platforms equally would constitute 'reverse discrimination' and violate Article 14 of the constitution. The draft bill aims to broaden the scope of broadcasting to include both broadcast content and distribution systems, including OTT.
