    Smriti Irani & Rathore retain two portfolios each, latter elevated

    NEW DELHI: Textile minister Smriti Zubin Irani has also been made the union minister for information and broadcasting (MIB) in the allocation of portfolios after reshuffle and expansion of the Union Cabinet.

    Irani was earlier given the additional charge of the ministry of information and broadcasting after M Venkaiah Naidu resigned following his nomination as the vice-president. It was feared that she would be divested of one of her two portfolios after the reshuffle, but she will continue to hold both.

    Meanwhile, Col. (Retd.) Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore has been elevated as the minister of state (independent charge) of youth affairs and sports, even as he will continue to hold the post of minister of state for information and broadcasting.

    Irani comes from a media and entertainment background having been a television actress. Rathore is a professional shooter who won a silver in the Olympics and multiple medals at the Commonwealth and Asian Games and is the recipient of both, a Padma Shri for sports and an Ati Vishisht Seva Medal for the Army.

    Rathore: Time gap of live matches between Star Sports and DD is three to four secs

    New Delhi: The Government says it has no information about any time delay in telecast by Star Sports of cricket matches or bookies taking advantage in any manner.

    Quoting Prasar Bharati, Minister of State for Information and Broadcasting Rajyavardhavn Rathore told the Rajya Sabha that there was a time gap of just three to four seconds on Doordarshan terrestrial transmission compared to that on Star Sports due to down-linking of signals and re-telecasting for terrestrial network and final telecast by Doordarshan terrestrial transmitters. The delay was due to time taken by the signal to travel back and forth to the satellite and processing by terrestrial transmitters, he said.

    Prasar Bharati had told the ministry that it had no information about time delay in telecast by Star Sports or bookies taking advantage in any manner. The pubcaster also said it had not received any complaints in this regard.
