This is written from Northern Part of Africa where we, Indians have received few Indian Television channels through agents like Dish Net. These are mostly pay channels. But we also receive free channels like DD India, DD news, and INDIA TV etc by using our own DISH and Receiver to watch Television. There are no cable operators to provide support like in India (no monthly service charge). This is one time investment (~=Rs10, 000). Local people use Nile sat and Arab sat. But we have additional Dish for Panamsat to receive Indian Channels besides Dish for Nile sat.
We are able to watch Hindi films on Nile sat every Friday from TV channels of Infinity, Bahrain, and Sama Dubai. All are in different time slots and rarely there will be overlapping. But to get Indian news through TV we have to necessarily use Panam sat to the best of my knowledge.
Comparing available Indian Channels India TV is the best one to reach us as being powerful signal strength with respect to audio as well as video and associated programs.Geo News (Pakistan) is equally good in reaching us.
Other channels have weak signals.While watching some sensitive news or interesting programs picture comes in bit and pieces with deformed and often click sound. It will certainly test the patience of viewers. It is better option to switch over to India TV that comes with quality Pic.
Baba list in India TV: It is surprise to watch babas’ programs that they have nowadays frequently showed. One Baba gives treatment for ghost (bhodh)troubles by slapping fellows who come with a complaint .Another Baba does cures in limping by one leg on hand, leg, and stomach of the persons who are reported sick, even a small child was subjected to this.
One more Baba, age of 14 years old, called Nag Baba gives ashirvadh to drive bad things, another Baba of 1 ½ feet height gives ashirvadh so as people believe that they get relief. List goes on.
It is quite interesting to watch this type of program because this entertains us with excitement.. The fact of the belief that people carry is to be ascertainable by some body.
Live interview with Public Prosecutor Nigam was telecasted within short period on the same day when the TADA court sentenced Sanjai Dutt , Hindi film actor to 6 years RI. This shows their efficiency and urgency to bring the facts to Public who can form their own opinion about the judgment
Just Laugh and Bhaki Maff: Laughing is also considered as a medicine to human being; India TV provides little but effectively every week. While watching this show definitely one will be relaxed beyond doubt
Alert viewers: Alert Viewer’ is a program which is by the viewer and for the viewer. It allows the people to raise their voice and bring the issues concerning the society to the limelight. The issues could be related to corruption, antisocialism, crime or any other issue of general public interest
India Bole is a chat show in which the viewers get a chance to interact LIVE with the India’s known experts over telephone and fetch the solutions to their problems relating to their health, finance, office, children, society and the other complex and controversial issues which they find difficult to deal with
Sting operation: before telecasting any particular event they collected all necessary documents including videos. Super … DERA SACHA SAUDA CHIEF EXPOSED, DRIVER REVEALS ALL. India TV did not give a chance for the chief to escape. All the angles including his driver interview are covered to ensure that they are correct and their message is True
Last week they interviewed with 8-year-old boy and his 6 years old sister to confirm that his father (UP) killed his mother. He was no mood of replying to the questions asked from TV station. For more than half an hour he was practically tortured. Pitiable incidents. At least they should have edited or avoided showing this type of live telecast.
They have shown cricket’s scores of test match of India v England. It is little feast for cricket fans. None of our DD channels /free channel have shown like this.
On the GuruMandra program the astrologer says many things for the caller question but finally the caller is advised to do some sort of Pooja to get his dream through .if some one has faith in it he/she can simply do Pooja without asking India TV’s Astrologer.
I did not fail to observe that they used to show one side story whenever they talked about family issues but rarely both side stories. It is better to show story of both sides so that viewers will come to know whose fault has led the issue/friction to become irrecoverable or irreversible.
Animation is always shown wherever their cameramen could not go and click.all of their programs like Aap Ki Adhalat, ACP Arjun, India Beats, Yoga show by Sri Ram DevJi are not highlighted
I believe that their programs are repeated three times in a particular day to beam to all global viewers. It gives variety of programs, some may dislike one or two programs but can not ignore this channel altogether. Of course, nither serial nor film is shown..
