The Karnataka Home Department has formed a joint team comprising CCB and cyber police to crackdown on piracy in Kannada cinema industry.
Home Minister Araga Jnanendra said the Kannada film industry had provided employment to lakhs of people besides being the entertainment sector, and added that the Government would take all measures to protect its interests. While earlier there was only discussion in this regard, recently a complain against piracy had been filed by film-makers, he said.
Meanwhile, the Minister also held consultations with various authorities concerned on the issue of amendment to the Karnataka Cinema (Regulation) Act, 1964. “We have decided to amend it in the next legislature session. In this background, we are eliciting the views of various stakeholders,” he said.
