Desh TV Bangladesh [edit]

Desh TV started officially broadcasting in Bangladesh on March 26, 2009;[1] from the Telstar 10 satellite.

Desh TV UK [edit]

During April 2011, Desh TV began testing on Eutelsat 28A,[2] ahead of a launch on the Sky platform in the United Kingdom and Ireland on April 26, 2011.[3] Desh TV started its regular free-to-air satellite broadcast in the UK on July 1, 2011. Desh TV predominantly broadcasts shows which have been recorded locally for its UK audience, it also carries imported shows from its main channel in Bangladesh.

Desh TV temporarily ceased broadcasting on Sky on January 12, 2012 while it went under management changes.[4] The channel returned to Sky on January 27, 2012 with a strategic plan aimed at rivalling the large number of established Bengali channels already in the UK market.[5]

On April 3, 2012 the channel was removed from Sky once again.
