Nexus Television (Bengali: নেক্সাস টেলিভিশন) is a Bangladeshi Bengali-language satellite and cable infotainment television channel owned by S. Alam Group of Industries. It was launched on 30 July 2021 as the country's first non-fiction infotainment television channel. Unlike other television channels in Bangladesh, the channel does not air drama, movies, and news programming.[3]

History

[edit]

In November 2013, Nexus Television was initially licensed by the Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission as Rangdhanu Television (Bengali: রংধনু টেলিভিশন; lit. 'rainbow').[4] After receiving a frequency allocation to broadcast in January 2015,[5] it began experimental broadcasts using that name in December 2019 via the Bangabandhu-1 satellite, which went for twenty-four hours a day. It had also originally planned to commence transmissions by the next few months.[6][7] Later, Rangdhanu Television was renamed to its current name in 2020.[8]

Nexus Television officially began broadcasting on 30 July 2021 at 18:00 (BST), with the "Jiboner Bondhon" (জীবনের বন্ধন; lit. 'The bond of life') slogan.[2] In its launch, Bangladesh's Minister of Information, Hasan Mahmud, has stated that the channel will play an important role in building Bangabandhu's dream of a golden Bengal under prime minister Sheikh Hasina.[9][10]

Nexus Television was the broadcasting partner of the 2020 Anannya Top Ten Awards, held on 28 December 2021.[11] During the International Women's Day on 8 March 2022, Nexus Television organized the 'Women Entrepreneur Fair' held for two days in its headquarters in Gulshan, and was broadcast live on the channel.[1][12]

Programming

[edit]

As an infotainment television channel, Nexus Television mainly consists of documentaries, programming regarding current affairs, empowerment of women, the struggle of Bangladeshis, the prosperity of the country, the youth, and many more.[2]
