Channel Nepal

Nepali satellite television channel

Channel Nepal was the first Nepali satellite television channel. Jamim Shah, a media entrepreneur, owned the channel until his 2010 murder. This channel provides entertainment, information and current affairs.[1]

The station was banned temporarily in 2000 after wrongly attributing anti-Nepal comments to Bollywood star Hrithik Roshan, sparking riots[2] which left four people dead[3] and 180 people injured in Nepal.[4][5]
