Den denies pirating Sun TV signals in Gurgaon & Ghaziabad

NEW DELHI: Den Networks has denied that it is distributing the signals of Sun Distribution Services Pvt. Ltd. (Sun) meant for Delhi, in Gurgaon and Ghaziabad as well.

 

This assertion was made by Den counsel Gaurav Kaushik in the Telecom Disputes Settlement and Arbitration Tribunal (TDSAT) in response to an application filed by Sun.

 

Listing the matter for 13 August, TDSAT chairman Justice Aftab Alam and members Kuldip Singh and B B Srivastava gave Den the option to file a reply to the application.

 

The miscellaneous application was filed by Sun, which is the respondent in the pending case by Den.

 

Sun alleged that the petitioner Den was indulging in piracy of its signals in as much as though under the interconnect agreement, it is authorised to transmit the signals only within the territory of Delhi, but it was transmitting Sun’s signals in Gurgaon and Ghaziabad, that is beyond the area under the interconnect agreement.
