Govt to legalise airing of adult content on TV

[Dish]

TV viewing at nights will soon become hotter, and it’s not just viewers but broadcasters and advertisers as well, who are cheering! Despite the ban on FTV and AXN for their so-called ‘raunchy’ content, the government has finalised guidelines to legalise the airing of adult content on TV channels.

As per the norms which will be incorporated into the Broadcast Bill, TV channels will be allowed to air ‘adult content’, including films classified as A or U/A, between 11 pm and 5 am, sources told ET. The Broadcast Bill is scheduled to be taken up by Parliament during the winter session.

Wow.........Great news....Finally the government is thinking on the right lines....Hope their is no opposition by people like Priya Ranjan Dasmunshi. But winter session is too far....I can't wait....lol....

On other notes, yes it would be a great source of revenue for broadcaster and their TRP's will definitely be boosted as everything would be legalised.

THe broadcasting bill was scheduled to be tabled in parliament during 2006! I am happy about adult content, but why should they make it official? Why cannot such laws be made unofficially? The sports broadcasting bill is passed without warning....I feel that the Govt is creating a flutter before enacting such laws---this spoils the job...I feel that it shouldbe done secretly without creating noise! This procrastination of the Bill only discourages the interested persons..IF THEY ARE GOING TO PERMIT ADULT CONTENT, LET THEM DO WITHIN A MONTH--WHY WAIT FOR MONSOON AND WINTER SESSION??

I agree with you, it should be done discreetly. It should not be advertized much.

Well This bill may passed in next few days. So keep on eye various news websites.

LOL.....even I think that would be the case.....they would start dishing B grade movies......

But whatever happens, I think the bill should be passed successfully. I still remember even Doordarshan not long ago used to show English movies (on DD metro) with mature content without any editing...Those were good dayszzz...
