Jalandhar (PTI): Nine more channels will be added to Doordarshan's direct-to-home service (DTH) which is very popular among the masses, Chief Executive Officer of Prasar Bharti Baljit Singh Lally said on Monday.
"Currently there are total 50 channels on the DTH, including 21 radio channels, and very soon nine more channels will be added to the bucket to make it more lucrative," Lally told reporters here.
Lally said the number of channels will be increased to 200 in coming months.
Referring to the latest data of Television Rating Point (TRP), Lally claimed that Doordarshan's 30 Punjabi programmes were topping the TRP list in Punjab, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh and Chandigarh.
At the national level too, the programmes of the its channels were listed among top 60. "I am not satisfied with the current judging system of TRP as it is based only on the report of 148 towns, in which no rural belt is included where DD has maximum viewership," he said.
Doordarshan will release DVD series, "Guru Manyo Granth" on the occasion of 300th year of Guru Granth Sahib in October for which a National Committee has already been formed, he said.
