Sakshi and Mahaa get license

Sakshi and Mahaa TV got licenses and this is shown in the website of the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting. They must have got the signed letters a couple of days ago since the Sakshi management has started sending out its logos very recently  and the Heads at Mahaa distributed sweets. The final hurdle has been crossed ant now it is for the leaders of these channels to go ahead and air their channels. Now the three channels due for February launch are  Studio N, Saakshi and Mahaa. But the recruitment in Mahaa is still incomplete and it may take another fortnight. Mr. CR Naidu, Chairman , Mahaa TV ( an ex official of the Police Department)  is confident enough that his channel will be on air in February itself at any cost.
 
The fate of Zee 24 Gantalu and Asianet Telugu news is still in geopardy as they are yet to get license. Though both the channels are claiming to have completed dry runs and are ready for launch once the license issue is solved, the staff say that it is difficult to go on air in February. The two channels - iNews and hmtv , test launched on 1st Jan are trying to remove the words " Test Signal " in the last week of this month.
