The Evolution Of Indian TV
In 1962 the Indian government created the country's first television channel,
Doordarshan, it remained the only Indian TV channel until the early 1980's,
a far cry from the current offering where you can recieve a great range of
Indian TV Online channels on your computer.
Ramayana and Mahabharat were the first major television shows
produced,they were both Hindu mythological stories based on religious scriptures.
Both serials created the world record for audience numbers for
one episode. By 1986 more people started to own television sets.
Though there was a single channel, television production had reached
saturation, so the indian government opened up another channel which had
some national programming and some regional. This channel was known as DD
2 later DD Metro, both channels were broadcast on the ground as opposed to
through sky based satellites.
The Indian government then launched a series of economic and social reforms
under the premiership of Narasimha Rao in 1991. Under the new policies the governmentallowed private and foreign broadcasters to get involved in limited operations in India. This process has been pursued consistently by all subsequent federal
governments. Foreign broadcasters like CNN, Star TV and domestic channels such
as Zee TV and Sun TV started satellite programming. In 1962 India had just 42
TV sets in the whole country and one TV channel, right now TV in India covers
more than 130 million homes giving a viewing population more than 800 million
individuals through more than 300 channels. A huge broadcasting market
easy accessibility of relevant technology and a variety of programmes are the
main reasons for rapid expansion of Television in India.
It must be stressed that Television Entertainment in India is one of the cheapest
in the world.Approximately 65% of homes in India have access to satellite TV,
which became established after Star TV, the broadcasting vehicle of media mogul,Rupert Murdoch, set the ball rolling in 1991.
After many years of state broadcasting Sun TV became the first television station, from the private sector in Southern India in 1992.
Today it has 20 channels in the four South Indian languages - Telugu,Tamil,
Kannada and Malayalam. The Sun TV network also broadcasts to many other countries
of India. Recently Sun TV launched a DTH service.
The Raj Network was started in 1994 and is an important player in the South
Cable Television industry in India.
In 1992, the Indian government changed policy by opening up to cable television.
Star TV and it's five Hong Kong based channels gave Indians a
new option. MTV, BBC, Star Plus, Prime Sports and STAR Chinese Channel were the
5 stations. Zee TV was the first private owned Indian channel to broadcast
on cable. After several years, the Discovery and National Geographic channel as well as Ted Turner's CNN
made its foray into India. Star expanded its range introducing STAR World, ESPN,
STAR Sports and STAR Gold. Regional channels did well along with a range of Hindi
stations and some tv channels from England. By 2001 The History Channel and HBO
entered India. By 2003, other channels such as Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network,
Disney,Toon Disney and VH1 joined the ranged of options for the Indian viewer.
In 2003 International and Domestic news channels started to grow.
India is currently undergoing the implementation of a new TV system called CAS
where the viewer gets the option to choose the channels they want to pay for and
view, instead of receiving the whole set of channels that the Cable Operator
makes available to them, so benefit by having to pay for just the channels they
want to watch. Currently, in most of India, there is no segregation and subscribers
pay a blanket rate for the entire service.
Over the last 40 years Indians have migrated all over the globe, The UK,USA,
and South Africa are just 3 countries where the resident Indian population went
over the million several years ago. This has brought about a new demand for
those Indians separated from their TV channels and one company,OnlineTVepisode.com,
has produced a product exactly for those people. The downloaded software allows
constant access to a full range of Indian TV Online channels, allowing the user to watch
local Indian News,Sport,Tv shows, Music and Movies on their laptop or desktop
computer.
