BSNL forays into IPTV service
Ludhiana: Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited would soon start its much-awaited Internet Protocol Television (ITPV) service in the city. With this, Ludhiana will become first city to have this service in Punjab.
According to official sources, “BSNL is all set for the soft launch of the service in the first week of December. After successful feedback, it will be launched at commercial level in the city.”
Through the service, BSNL will provide 120 television channels to its broadband subscribers at a monthly rental of Rs 150. Subscribers will also have to deposit a security of Rs 999 for a set top box.
According to Mohan Lal, Deputy General Manager (Administration and Marketing), Bharat Nagar Telephone Exchange,”The testing is on. We will see how it works in 15-20 days. We hope to launch it by January commercially.”
It needs to be mentioned here that broadband service of BSNL, which was started about three years ago, has still not reached all customers. A senior official, however, said,”Some areas are still technically non-feasible for broadband, but we are working hard to expand our reach.”
