Commonwealth Games 2010 will be available on high definition (HD) mode, considered best in the world, through Direct To Home platforms to millions of viewers across India. India’s national broadcaster Doordarshan has decided to launch the country’s first indigenous high definition channel on its Direct To Home Platform, DD Direct, on September 1 to broadcast the Games, which would be shared free of cost with other DTH operators. Already, foreign channels such as National Geographic and Discovery are available on HD mode.
It is part of the government’s decision to telecast the games on high definition (digital) quality for which the Central government has provided a budget of Rs 120 crore.
Four high definition studios are ready at Delhi (DD National), Mumbai (DD Sahayadri), Chennai (DD Podhigai) and Kolkatta( DD Bangla) to enable the broadcast.
