TV9 Launches news channel


I was wondering for all these days when Bangalore has a silicon valley of its own; with the country's IT major headquarters and corporate offices here why not Bangalore have its own English News Channel. And here, namma Bengaluru makes it big with the new 24/7 English news channel launching today. The channel is named news9, and is an off shoot of the ABCL which earlier launched the TV9 Kannada for the local people of Karnataka. Although I didn't like the logo pretty much, the tagline 'catch the big news live' is impressive and wish and hope the news9 channel Bangalore is going to rock the news making world.

Come today the country will have a new national news voice from South, precisely from Bangalore. The local news channel TV9 launches a 24-hour English news channel in Bangalore. The local kannada news channel TV9 is quite a popular channel and finds a lot of favor with the sandalwood celebrities, healthcare people, NPOs and even politicians.'

Now the successful channel TV9 together with ABCL takes a leap further and sets its sights on the basically the local news and targets the upwardly mobile young audience and news9 future plans include coverage of the Indian and international news in the most preferred language, English and launches its all new News9 channel Bangalore. The test signal is on air right now and I take pride as a Bangalorean and wish from my heart all the very best to News9 channel. Hopefully, the news people cover facts and takes the name of Bengaluru high on the world map.

Make sure you all 'catch the big news live' from news9 channel Bangalore!
