NewDelhi:
Doordarshan News recorded an unprecedented surge in its viewership during the
live telecast of VijayDashmi speech of Shri Mohan ji Bhagwat, Poojniya
SarSanghchalak of RSS on October 3. The weekly viewership of DD News increased
by around 40 lakh compared to past several months.
The Communist and
Congress parties had joined hands and created a needless controversy by
criticizing the national broadcaster for turning Doordarshan into an RSS
propaganda machine. Doordarshan had defended its decision to telecast Shri
Mohan Bhagwat’s speech as a news event that was worthy of coverage. The huge
jump in viewership vindicates stand taken by DD News.
DD news received a
viewership of around 1.11 crore during the week from 29th September till
5th October that was an increase of 39.47 lakh in viewership when compared to
the previous week. During the preceding week the viewership of DD stood at
around 72 lakh.
