- Published on 23 Feb 15

a. ESPN
b. Prasar Bharti
c. Star Cricket
d. Ten Sports

ANSWER: Prasar Bharti
 
The court passed the order on the plea of BCCI, ESPN and Star who had contended that cable TV operators were getting live feeds through DD channels free of cost, resulting in loss of revenue for them. It also refused to grant relief of striking down a 2000 notification issued by Prasar Bharati which made it mandatory for cable operators to carry DD National and DD News channels.
