Live Times, India’s first global multicast news hub, has expanded its reach by securing a slot on DD Free Dish Channel No. 100, further strengthening its presence across the country. This move enhances its availability, making authentic and accurate news more accessible to millions of viewers, the news network said in a press release.
After establishing itself on leading DTH platforms—including Tata Play, Dish TV, and Airtel DTH—as well as India’s largest digital platform, Jio TV, Live Times continues its commitment to delivering credible journalism to a broader audience. The addition to DD Free Dish now extends its reach to 150 million households, covering approximately 450 million individuals across urban, semi-urban, and rural India.
Speaking about this milestone, Dilip Kumar Singh, Founder of Live Times, emphasized the importance of fact-based reporting. He stated, “Information is power only when it is factually correct. Our mission is to ensure that truth reaches every citizen. Live Times on DD Free Dish is a key step in taking accurate news to even the most remote corners of India.” He further added, “With this addition, we are moving one step closer to democratizing access to news and information for all.”
For advertisers and brands, Live Times‘ presence on DD Free Dish offers a unique opportunity to engage with a diverse and highly engaged audience across India, from major metropolitan cities to the heartlands of the country. This expansion bridges the urban-rural information divide, ensuring that every Indian, regardless of location or socio-economic background, has access to high-quality journalism.
Viewers can now tune into Live Times on DD Free Dish (Channel No. 100) and also watch the channel on Tata Play (Channel 539), DishTV (Channel 665), Airtel Digital TV (Channel 385), Jio TV (Channel 3069), and Sikka Cable TV (Channel 319).
