Restructuring Prasar Bharati
When there is talk of restructuring a public institution by the government one is entitled to be apprehensive. It could be the beginning of privatisation initiatives.
There is a news report that the government is planning on restructuring Doordarshan.
The bottomline: “[For] expenditure of around Rs. 2,000 crore, Prasar Bharati just manages revenues of around Rs. 800 crore.” Now that’s something you’d call a bad deal. In fact, any public expenditure is a bad deal. Everything is decided by the balance sheet in liberalised India.
