NEW DELHI: The Rajya Sabha (Upper House of Parliament) adjourned today without the Cable TV Networks (Regulation) Amendment Bill, 2002, failing to come up for discussion yet again.

As reported earlier, the CAS bill will continue to be listed every day till it is passed, government sources aver. "The okay may come through sometime this week," a senior I&B ministry official told indiantelevision on Tuesday in the forenoon, adding, "Unless some members (of the Rajya Sabha) insist on a lengthy debate on the issue."

The amendments to the Act were passed in the Lok Sabha (Lower House) on 15 May through a voice vote.
