DD India
IndiaDD India is the English-language international news channel of Doordarshan, India's state-owned public broadcaster, based in New Delhi and launched in 1995. Its headlines are overwhelmingly about India, followed by the United States, Iran and the Gulf states. Politics and diplomacy dominate the mix, economy comes next, and security and society are smaller. Its stance is strongly favourable toward India and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, and neutral to critical toward the United States.
Political leaning and stance
DD India's headlines are consistently favourable toward India and Narendra Modi. The data describes the tone as supportive, celebratory and promotional, with the honorific "PM Modi" used throughout and his statements amplified without distancing verbs. No critical treatment of India or its government appears in the measured period. The United States is reported neutrally at first, then more critically, with attention to setbacks and controversial policies of the Trump administration. The measured period is short and covers only a few entities. This is measured from headlines toward countries and persons; it is not a rating of accuracy.
Based on headlines from May 2026 to August 2026.
Who owns DD India
