Broadcast regulator may have limited powers
The Bill relating to prop-osed Broadcast Content Regulatory Authority of India may not be taken up by policy-makers during the present winter sess-ion of Parliament, but the information and broadca-sting ministry is working on a draft that is likely ready by the Budget session in February 2004.
The broadcast regulat-or, which was earlier part Convergence Communic-ation Bill that has been junked by government for all practical purposes, would come into exist- ence through a separate Act Parliament.
