A Telugu and English channel, it is the initiative of Swami Paripoornananda who has succeeded in launching the channel after two years of planning.

Paripoornananda wants the channel, which is a news-cum-general entertainment channel (GEC), to emphasise the need to trace back the richness of the Indian philosophy that survived the onslaught of many religions and many countries.
