What was published elsewhere
On 4 August 2023, NDTV Profit reported that the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting had permitted NDTV to uplink and downlink four regional news channels: NDTV Rajasthan, NDTV Madhya Pradesh/Chhattisgarh, NDTV Gujarati and NDTV Marathi. That is a corporate permission, not a credit.
On 12 June 2024, Wasp3D published a customer note and a short film about NDTV’s live news and Lok Sabha coverage. The film’s description names NDTV MP Chhattisgarh and NDTV Rajasthan, and lists live data, 3D graphics, augmented reality and multi-touch. Those pages describe the network’s use of the vendor. They do not name Ishan Khurana.
NDTV Gujarati and NDTV Marathi were permitted in 2023. They are not part of this launch.
