Aiming to reach out to more viewers in the northeast, public broadcaster Prasar Bharati is planning to launch by Christmas a new Doordarshan channel 'DD Arunprabha' in the region.
Officials told PTI that in a recent meeting, the Prasar Bharati board approved a proposal to launch the channel, which will focus primarily on the viewers of Arunachal Pradesh and Sikkim but will have content for other states of the region as well.
It is expected that the channel will come up by December 25.
