The media/mass communication universities representing a cluster will be made responsible for developing contents related not only to their universities but also the universities that are in their vicinity. Since these universities have the built-in production capabilities that includes studios, script writers, producers, directors and technicians. Therefore, providing TV platform to universities would not only helps in showcasing the talent of media and mass communication students/ faculty but also helps in developing a contents for the TV channel.
