New Delhi, Feb 10:
Supreme Court today stayed the Delhi High Court judgement barring Prasar Bharati from sharing with cable operators through Doordarshan (DD) channels the live feed of the 2015 Cricket World Cup on which ESPN and Star have exclusive broadcasting rights.
“The order of the High Court shall remain suspended,” a bench comprising Justice Ranjan Gogoi and Justice Pinaki Chandra Ghose said in its interim order and posted the hearing on February 17 while asking the private channels and BCCI to come with their proposals to resolve the dispute.
The apex court, which issued notices to the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and Star India Ltd, said the issue deserved to be heard in detail.
However, senior advocate P Chidambaram, appearing for Star India, said the matter required urgent hearing as the Cricket World Cup 2015 is scheduled to start from February 14. (PTI)
