  • Neo Sports to give live feed to DD for 17 Feb ODI; no action against Nimbus

    Neo Sports to give live feed to DD for 17 Feb ODI; no action against Nimbus

    NEW DELHI: Following an assurance that it was prepared to give live feed to Prasar Bharati and action against it was unwarranted, Nimbus was today directed by the Delhi High Court to provide live feed for the cricket match between India and Sri Lanka to be played on 17 February in Visakhapatnam.

    The bench comprising Justice Vikramjit Sen and Justice JP Singh passed the order after Nimbus counsel Gopal Jain mentioned the matter before the bench seeking protection against the showcause notice issued by the information and broadcasting ministry alleging there had been violation of the provisions of the Sports Broadcasting (Mandatory Sharing with Prasar Bharati) Ordinance 2007.
    Nimbus wanted the court to direct the Centre not to take action against it as it had offered to provide live feed of the match to the Prasar Bharati. Under the ordinance, the licence given to Neo Sports owned by Nimbus can be suspended.

    The court directed the government not to take any decision or action till 9 March, the next date of hearing.

    The court also issued notices to the Centre and Prasar Bharati on a petition filed by Nimbus challenging the ordinance, which makes it mandatory for private broadcaster to share live feed with the pubcaster.

    Earlier in the day, Nimbus had approached another Bench of the Delhi High Court presided over by Justice BD Ahmed seeking protection from the Centre’s threat to cancel its licence if it did not respond to the government’s show cause notice by today.

    However, Justice Ahmed had said then that the broadcaster should raise the issue before the Division Bench that was already hearing two cases on the issue – Nimbus’ challenge of the ordinance and the appeal by Prasar Bharati against a single bench’s order permitting a seven-minute deferred telecast of the cricket matches.

The leading sports network will showcase its proprietary properties Premiership Saturday and Super Sunday showcasing top class action from the world’s best football leagues.

    On Saturday, Liverpool kick off the action against old rivals Everton in the Merseyside Derby with the Reds chasing the top two teams in a close fight with the season ending. Everton were a surprise package last time the two teams met at Ewood Park and Rafael Benitez and his men will be looking to turn it around this time in Anfield.

    Also on Saturday, Chelsea will look to maintain their lead over Liverpool as they face bottom rung Charlton Athletic in what could be an easy encounter for Mourinho’s men after a sluggish last few weeks. With Mourinho killing all rumours of his alleged rift with Chelsea Football Club owner Roman Abramovich and star striker Andriy Shevchenko finding his feet in England, Chelsea might have what it takes to be the Champions for the third year in running.

    Arsenal faces a tricky Middlesbrough on Saturday at the Riverside Stadium; the home team might just spring up the surprise of the week. Arch rivals Manchester United take the field on Sunday facing probably the toughest match out of the top four clubs. The Red Devils make a trip to White Hart Lane looking to conquer the Spurs to maintain their six point advantage over Chelsea.

    In the Spanish League, Real Madrid will be looking to kill off Levante to play catch up on leaders Barcelona who play away against Osasuna on Sunday.
