Asianet is an Indian pay television channel which broadcasts mainly Malayalam-language television series. Headquartered in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala,[1] the channel is part of Asianet Communications, owned by Star India. It was the first privately-owned Malayalam-language channel in the country.
History[edit]
The channel was launched in 1993 with a broadcast of only three hours per day, with the rest of the Tie showing selective programs from the Australian Broadcasting Corporation and CNBC. By late-1994, the channel increased its broadcast time to 12 hours per day and later to round-the-clock broadcasting. Asianet was the first private TV channel of India to do 'live' news broadcasting from its Subic Bay uplink centre. In early-1995, the uplink was shifted to Singapore where it attained full operational status. With a change in the broadcasting policies of the Government of India, Asianet started an uplink from Chennai through VSNL. From 15 July 2002, Asianet had its own earth station at the Asianet Studio Complex in Puliyarakonam, Thiruvananthapuram.
