Some additional categories based on the suggestions/requirements from different wings of DD/AIR have been added with appropriate recommended remuneration, (b)DD News: Media has witnessed exponential growth in the last two decades cially in the News genze, To cope with the increased work pressure, full time human resource has been engaged since evolution of full fledged channels like DD News to generate the content in house with due approvals from Prasar Bharati Board / CEO from time to time. Such buman resource was not engaged against any sanctioned post_as posts were not sanctioned in keeping quantum of the work load of a 24X7 news channel. Also while approving the proposal fox commencing 2 24X7 DD News Channel, the Union Cabinet decided that the increased quantum of work would be maagéd by engaging personnel on contract basis as creation of posts was not found feasible.

The custent remunerations in these categories are though much above the proposed rates for some of the contractual staff in other channels with the same qualifications because of different job requirement which at times is more demanding on account of 24X7 live telecast and partly also due to a single performance assessment based hike leading to dispadty.
