Sansad TV, the integrated product of LSTV, RSTV, to be ‘more focused and content-driven’

Sansad TV, the proposed integrated result of Lok Sabha TV and Rajya Sabha TV, is likely to have two variants, with Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha sessions telecast live on each. When Parliament is not in session, the two channels will have “common content to a large-extent”, sources said.

Though the content will largely be the same, LSTV will have Hindi programming while RSTV will be in English.

These are the proposals of a committee that was set up in November to look into the integration, and had submitted its report in February. It had recommended that Sansad TV have a “more robust editorial policy” to make it “more focused and content-driven”, for viewers to “know in detail about the functioning of parliamentary institutions and democracy”.
