NEW DELHI: The three Zee channels are up on DD Direct Plus, the DTH platform of Prasar Bharati, but the Telecom Disputes Settlement and Appellate Tribunal will hear the case again on 9 February.

Complying with the Tdsat directive, Prasar Bharati restored the signals of Zee Smile, Zee Jagran and ETC Music - and also that of a regional broadcaster Enter10 TV - on DD Direct Plus.

Tdsat had pulled up Prasar Bharati for not complying with its direction regarding carriage of three Zee channels on its DTH platform DD Direct Plus.

According to Tdsat's direction, each channel has to cough out Rs 6 million as carriage fee to the state-owned DTH service provider.
