    Zee Bihar Jharkhand launches new show ‘System ka Reality Check’

    Mumbai: Zee Bihar Jharkhand has launched a new news show ‘System ka Reality Check’.

    Backed by the expertise of Zee Media’s news representatives across the state, the new series is an attempt to keep a close eye on the overall operations – health system, governance, ensure factual information reaches the audience and eliminate the social evils from the society. 

    This show is being aired at 2 pm every day and has grabbed the attention of the viewers and the concerned authorities, who were compelled to take corrective measures post the channels’ coverage. 

    With an aim to address social concerns, Zee Bihar Jharkhand has conducted the first series of reality check of the health systems by investigating the overall robust operations of the systems, which also includes exposing the reality of individual government hospitals across the Bihar- Jharkhand State. Cleanliness issues, lack of medical facilities, scarcity and timely availability of free medicines, resource crunch of doctors and nurses, disrespectful behaviour of the hospital staff, shortage or no rooms available in respective wards, patients put being put on stretchers in the corridors etc are some of the biggest challenges faced by the health infrastructure across different districts of the Bihar-Jharkhand state.

    Till date, the Zee Bihar Jharkhand team has conducted a surprise check across hospitals, which also include Patna Medical College and Hospital (PMCH), Nalanda Medical College and Hospital (NMCH), Sardar Hospital etc. 

    Zee Bihar Jharkhand’s health system reality check campaign has begun to yield transforming results, bringing to light the sluggishness prevailing in the government system of Bihar.  Strict actions and quick decisions are being taken to improve the system by the concerned officials. 

    Bihar health minister Tejashwi Yadav lauded the campaign of Zee Bihar-Jharkhand and said, “I appreciate the efforts being taken by the Zee Bihar-Jharkhand team, as it has helped to get an in-depth understanding of ground reality and shortcomings and challenges faced by the population in Bihar-Jharkhand. We look forward to strengthening the health infrastructure across different districts. Discussions on beneficial health policies and facilities will also be taken care of.”

    Additionally, IMA president Sahajanand praised the initiative and assured to address the problems of the state.

    Commenting on the continuous success of the campaign, Zee Bihar Jharkhand CEO Purushottam Vaishnav said, “Zee Bihar Jharkhand feels socially responsible to expose the facts and challenges faced by different sections of the economy, thus impacting the well-being of the common man. Besides the health system, we also look to simultaneously discuss and expose the reality of about every section in the upcoming months.”  

    “Zee Bihar Jharkhand channel is not only hopeful, but firmly believes in ensuring the right information is exposed to the vast population of Bihar-Jharkhand state. We will continue exposing those showing indifference towards their duties and not performing it sincerely,” highlighted Zee Bihar Jharkhand editor Rajkamal Choudhary.

  • India Today brings ‘Democratic Newsroom’ to television

    India Today brings ‘Democratic Newsroom’ to television

    New Delhi: India Today TV launches Democratic Newsroom, a prime time show devoid of any agenda, where news anchors are given free rein to present their diversified viewpoints about the same issue across the table. The show will premiere on 23 September 2022 at 7 p.m.

    The launch of this new show marks a beginning that will go a long way in re-establishing the genre as a credible knowledge source by making each voice heard, each opinion weighed in, every evidence examined thus giving a chance to the audience to make its own informed choices.

    The show brings out a team that faces news & views head-on, they discuss, dissect, investigate and debate and they don’t stop. Because when there’s a dark shadow over TV news only one thing shines through – a democratic newsroom.

    At a time when television news faces the biggest glare ever amidst ongoing hate speeches for television rating points. A time when the country’s top court takes a dismal view. A time when a nation’s fingers point at TV news channels. One show will rise above all others. Democratic Newsroom and India Today won’t hide behind bias, bombast & bigotry..

    The marquee series in its digital avatar had built on the brand’s four-decade-long legacy of its gold standard journalism where the channel’s anchors are given equal platform and journalistic liberty to express their varied opinions on any matter national or international. Some of the prominent democratic newsrooms spoken about recently included the government’s decision to rename Rajpath as Kartavyapath, the next general elections – BJP vs opposition – Is 2024 a done deal, National Herald case & ED questioning Rahul Gandhi, Bollywood Boycott, Gyanwapi, Virat Kohli, Depp Amber lawsuit and the need for a one-day State mourning held on the passing away of Queen Elizabeth.

    The TV show will further strengthen the channel’s promise, “With absolutely zero political vendetta India Today’s news anchors have been accorded full freedom to voice their opinions both on air and off air, which in return provides the audience a fair and balanced broadcast of actual news.” The first-of-its-kind show will bring the democratic newsroom debates into the full public gaze. An opportunity to join the editors as they discuss, argue and challenge each other on the topical subjects of the week. The channel has taken on this challenge of bringing honest journalism with diversified viewpoints abhorring the race for ratings.
