Dishtv not following TRAI regulation- forcing us to select all 100 FTA channels

Why DishTV is forcing us to buy 100 Free to air (FTA) channels and thereafter add any other channel, But as per TRAI, only 25 DD channels are mandatory (which are of MIB-Ministry of Information and Broadcasting) , rest consumer is free to choose from combination of free and Payed channels,

Choosing FTA channels are costing us network capacity fee. why should i be forced to select all FTA channels, most of which we never watch.

Please take necessary action against DishTV and make them clear about guidelines.

Plz refer FAQs of TRAI’s official website – page no 10, point no 12. which says

“”12. Does Rs. 130 network capacity fee for 100 channels include only FTA channels

Network capacity fee for 100 channels includes FTA channels or Pay channel or combination thereof. Taking FTA channels is the choice of subscriber but not mandatory except the mandatory channels of MIB. If Subscriber chooses pay channels, applicable MRP is payable in addition to the network capacity fee.””
