Zing on Virgin TV
Why is it that a free to view channel Zing is not part of the Asian package or even on the basic packages?
It is a free to view channel and Virgin Media took it down and said it may come back soon??? That was ages ago and it's still not on! And told me Sunrise Radio was an alternative, it is nothing like Zing.

India is 12 times the size of the UK. It's more like saying Newcastle is near Durham. Which it is.

Just because a country is bigger, doesn't make distances smaller.
The closest big town/city in Punjab to Delhi ia Lehra Gaga, which is 243km away. And the farthest is Amritsar which is 284km (Although these distances don't look quite right).
Neither of these could be described as close, as they take many hours by road.

It's not Punjab though is it?
And the city doesn't border Haryana, the New Delih provence (or whatever they are know as) borders Haryana.

The City of Delhi is the same as the Delhi Union Territory (like Washington DC)
