History

In November 2013, the Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission granted Golam Dastagir-owned Green Multimedia Limited a license to broadcast a television channel.[4] Later, on 19 May 2023 at 18:00 (BST), the official transmissions of the channel were inaugurated at the International Convention City Basundhara.[5] [2] The speaker of the Jatiya Sangsad, Shirin Sharmin Chaudhury, one of the attendees of the launch ceremony, stated that she believed the channel would accurately showcase the history of the Liberation War to the youth.[6]

Green TV signed an agreement with the Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman Aviation and Aerospace University on 4 January 2024.[7] On 19 August 2024, the broadcasts of Green TV were temporarily suspended by the Bangladesh Satellite Company Limited due to multiple failures to settle its dues and violations of terms ruled in payment notices. Earlier, its broadcasts were suspended four times after failing to comply with bill payments. Since May 2024, its TRP services were also suspended due to similar reasons.[8] [9] [10] [11]

Programming

The programming of Green TV includes entertainment shows and movies targeted toward family-oriented audiences.[3] It also broadcasts news programming.[1]
