Public TV is a leading Kannada‑language news channel based in Bengaluru, launched in 2012 by journalist H.R. Ranganath. It’s known for its independent positioning, slogan “(ಯಾರ ಆಸ್ತಿಯೂ ಅಲ್ಲ, ಇದು ನಿಮ್ಮ ಟಿವಿ)” (“Not anyone’s property, this is your TV”), and strong focus on regional, national, and international news.
