  • Gujarat Government Overcomes Hurdles of Lockdown in More Than One Innovative Ways
    Gujarat Government overcomes hurdles of lockdown in more than one innovative ways As we have witnessed, COVID-19 has changed scenario of the world. This global pandemic is one of the biggest challenges the international community has ever faced in the recent history. It has also re-emphasised the stark inequalities between the privileged and the marginalised communities. The world also faced the biggest lockdown which obstructed or delayed many essential services in the field of livelihood, health, nutrition, education, etc. And the last mile people suffered most due to the situation. The service providers, especially the governments came across the greatest challenge to continue these essential services without compromising with the regularity, quality and health norms. As per its mandate ICDS scheme fulfils the most critical needs of community at large by providing supplementary nutrition, healthcare and preschool education for pregnant and lactating mothers, adolescent girls and children below six years. To defeat the challenge and to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 the Government of India imposed a nationwide lockdown on 23rd March 2020. Along with all the other important Govt. departments, ICDS came forward with innovative, scalable and practical ideas for safe delivery of essential services even during the lockdown. To ensure the health and safety of beneficiaries and service providers, ICDS, Women & Child Development Department, Gujarat, designed, developed and implemented ‘Umbre Anganwadi’ (means Anganwadi at Door Step) programme using digital platforms and to ensure home delivery of services. Since Anganwadi Centres had shut down on 16th of March (and remain closed till date), they had to come up with the alternative for provision of Hot cook meals.

  • Global Pay TV Fragments
    Global pay TV fragments The top 503 pay TV operators will reach 853 million subscribers from the 1.02 billion global total by 2026. The top 50 operators accounted for 64% of the world’s pay TV subscribers by end-2020, with this proportion dropping to 62% by 2026. Pay TV subscribers by operator ranking (million) 1200 1000 143 165 38 45 800 74 80 102 102 600 224 215 400 200 423 412 0 2020 2026 Top 10 11-50 51-100 101-200 201+ Excluded from report The top 50 will lose 20 million subscribers over the next five years. However, operators beyond the top 100 will gain subscribers over the same period. Simon Murray, Principal Analyst at Digital TV Research, said: “Most industries consolidate as they mature. The pay TV sector is doing the opposite – fragmenting. Most of the subscriber growth will take place in developing countries where operators are not controlled by larger corporations.” By end-2020, 13 operators had more than 10 million pay TV subscribers. China and India will continue to dominate the top pay TV operator rankings, partly as their subscriber bases climb but also due to the US operators losing subscribers. Between 2020 and 2026, 307 of the 503 operators (61%) will gain subscribers, with 13 showing no change and 183 losing subscribers (36%). In 2020, 28 pay TV operators earned more than $1 billion in revenues, but this will drop to 24 operators by 2026. The Global Pay TV Operator Forecasts report covers 503 operators with 726 platforms [132 digital cable, 116 analog cable, 279 satellite, 142 IPTV and 57 DTT] across 135 countries.

  • Launching of Doordarshan: This Day in History – Sep 15
    Launching of Doordarshan: This Day in History – Sep 15 On 15 September 1959, the Government of India launched Doordarshan or DD in short, India’s public service broadcaster in Delhi. Starting as an experiment with one small 5 KW transmitter and an improvised studio, DD became a national broadcaster in 1982. Origins of Doordarshan ● When it started out, DD was part of All India Radio. The initial equipment was provided by Philips India Ltd. and the coverage area was only 40 km around the national capital. It was inaugurated by the then President Dr Rajendra Prasad. ● DD initially telecast programmes only on two days a week for a duration of one hour per day. ● With aid from the Ford Foundation, educational programmes were telecast for school children in Delhi from 1964. ● Daily transmission of programmes commenced in 1965. Duration of the broadcast was only three hours per day. It also started a news bulletin (lasting only five minutes) in 1965. ● In 1967, DD aired its first programme called ‘Krishi Darshan’. This was a 20-minute programme for farmers educating them about various aspects about agriculture. This was done in collaboration with the Department of Atomic Energy, the Indian Research Institute, and the Delhi, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh governments. Krishi Darshan is one of the longest running shows on Indian television, along with Chitrahaar, a show that plays Bollywood songs. ● The television service was extended to Bombay and Amritsar in 1972. ● Gradually over the years, the duration of the service and the transmitter range were increased. ● The government conducted a satellite TV experiment in 1975-76 for educational purposes.
