ignouA memorandum of understanding is being agreed with the Ministry of Human Resource Development, according to Indian Express. In addition to the new satellite TV channels, IGNOU is also reportedly revisiting the content of two channels previously broadcast by Gyan Darshan before they were taken off air in 2014 for failure to pay their debts to public broadcaster Doordarshan.
“HRD ministry has given the responsibility to IGNOU for running four DTH channels,” the University said in a statement. “We have also restored two other TV channels and will be on the air soon. For that, we are constantly in touch with HRD, Prasar Bharti and I&B Ministry,” an IGNOU official told the newspaper.
