In a fresh development at ABP News, the news channel has dedicated its prime time slot to ‘Public Interest’, a show that keeps the viewers’ interest in mind — aapka time (your time).
Starting July 17, ‘Public Interest’ will air Monday to Friday at 9 pm. This shift signifies a ground-breaking approach, prioritizing public interests and enabling viewer participation, the news channel said in a media statement issued in Hindi.

‘Public Interest’ pledges to prioritize public interests and elevate the voices of the people. With the power to shape the news narrative, viewers can now actively contribute to the discussions, making their opinions and concerns heard.
