Mumbai: India TV, one of the leading news broadcasters and the only news group to have CTV first news channels in India, has added another jewel to its crown with the launch of ‘India TV Chunav Manch, a dedicated channel for 24x7 election updates. The launch is scheduled for 15 October and will take place during India TV’s flagship event “Chunav Manch”, which is being held in Madhya Pradesh, this year.
The 2024 election is expected to be a landmark moment in the Indian political landscape, and India TV is gearing up to deliver exclusive election coverage through its dedicated 24x7 stream available on its CTV App and dedicated YouTube channel. India TV will provide round-the-clock analysis of latest election news and trends and political interviews. This will also include the upcoming state elections.
