There is a channel on Airtel Dth.by the name of MY TV. It is running a bogus programme in which an announcer comes and shows you the face of any well known Film star or celeberety and asks you to call on their number and tell the name of that person. Viewers are promised a large sum of money on giving the right answer. The call to this number is charged at premium call rates of Rs.12 per minute. When you call on this number you are kept on Hold for several minutes so that they can earn more and more through call charges. Also the announcer on Tv. keeps on passing more and more time on a single question and you are persuaded to hold for more and more time, so that more money is generated through call charges. Many times the questions are wrongly answered by people employed by the channel itself, so that the question can be extended more and more. This is cheating and is provoking people to play Gambling.
