Peace TV not available

Address:Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh

Hi,

I purchased Airtel Digital TV some time ago. Since this is ramzan month, we wanted to see the religious programs that are being telecasted in Peace TV. But I notice that the Airtel Digital TV does not have the Peace TV.

I would urge the Airtel to please provide Peace TV as we are a big fan of that.

Request you to kindly consider this and make appropriate steps as early as possible.
