DD News

DD News is the round-the-clock news channel of Doordarshan, India's public broadcaster, which is run by Prasar Bharati. It went on air in November 2003, taking the place of the old DD Metro, and was the first Indian news channel to reach viewers through both cable and terrestrial transmission. Being free-to-air, it is one of the easiest news channels to find anywhere in the country.

The channel concentrates on Hindi news bulletins, national and state politics, government announcements, Parliament, the economy, sport and stories from across India's regions. Coverage of big national events such as elections, budgets and Republic Day is a highlight. It even runs Vaarta, a news bulletin in Sanskrit. DD News suits viewers who prefer a calm, straight presentation of the day's events without shouting matches.

For English news from the same public broadcaster, open DD India. Fans of family shows from Doordarshan can switch to DD National, and for Parliament proceedings there is Sansad TV.

Watch DD News live online on NoWireTV and follow Hindi news as it happens – free on our website, in the NoWireTV Android app and on Fire TV. There is no set-top box or recharge needed, just a working internet connection.
