History

[edit]

“News Nation” is an Indian Hindi-language news channel owned and promoted by News Nation Network Pvt Ltd.[citation needed]

The network has a bouquet of three TV channels – News Nation, a national Channel in Hindi, and two regional channels News State (Uttar Pradesh & Uttarakhand) and News State (Madhya Pradesh & Chhattisgarh). The network plans to expand its regional offering across India and is soon coming with two more regional news channel News State (Bihar & Jharkhand) and News State (Maharashtra & Goa).[citation needed]

News State Uttar Pradesh/Uttarakhand: News State Uttar Pradesh/Uttarakhand is News Nation Network's first regional Hindi News Channel. It has news from all 88 districts of Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand, besides covering major stories from major cities and towns. Since its launch, in February 2014, it has maintained its position as the No.1 channel in terms of viewership as per BARC ratings.[citation needed]

News State Madhya Pradesh/ Chhattisgarh: In March 2018, News Nation Network launched its second regional Hindi News Channel, News State Madhya Pradesh/Chhattisgarh. Since its launch, it is amongst the Top regional Hindi News channels of Madhya Pradesh & Chhattisgarh as per BARC Ratings.[citation needed]

In September 2022, journalist Anil Yadav resigned from the channel saying that there is pressure from the Uttar Pradesh government to cover up government scams, to run shows which have a "Hindu-Muslim agenda" and criticize only the politicians of other parties.[citation needed] He further alleged that the channel gets Rs 17-18 crore a year from the government and that's why News Nation can't report against the BJP.[3]

In November 2022, News Nation created a channel called News State Maharashtra Goa which was a Free To Air (FTA) Marathi News Channel for the audience of Maharashtra and Goa.[citation needed] It was shut down after 1 year of airing i.e in November 2023 due to less increment in TRP. However, News State Maharashtra Goa got relaunched for the Maharashtra and Goa's YouTube Audience in June 2024.[citation needed]
