Revive and revamp Arasu Cable TV Corporation: cable operators
Cable operators in the State have asked Chief Minister Jayalalithaa to revive and revamp the now defunct Arasu Cable TV Corporation to offer more channels at lower cost for the benefit of consumers.
The Thamizhaga Cable TV Operator's General Welfare Association (TCOA), primarily formed to oppose the monopoly in cable trade, held its executive committee meeting here on Friday.
