Star News has officially begun broadcasting as the country’s tenth news-based television channel.

The formal inauguration was announced on Tuesday evening at 7:00 PM through a cake-cutting ceremony held at the Nabil Group of Industries (NGI) building located in the Tejgaon Industrial Area.

At the event, Mokhchhedul Kamal, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Star News, stated that the channel is equipped with a state-of-the-art “Full Studio Automation” system developed by Aveco, one of the world’s leading broadcast technology companies.

The role of Head of News is being carried out by senior journalist Waliur Rahman Miraj, who expressed optimism that through the combination of modern thinking, technology-driven broadcasting systems, and audience-centric content, Star News will be able to establish a strong position in the country’s media landscape within a short period of time.
