What is DD Free Dish?

DD Free Dish is a free-to-air satellite television service provided by the Indian government-owned broadcaster, Doordarshan. It was launched in December 2004 as a direct-to-home (DTH) service and provides access to a range of television channels without the need for a cable or dish connection.

The service is available through the use of a small dish antenna and a set-top box, and it provides access to a variety of channels, including news, entertainment, sports, and regional channels. DD Free Dish is aimed at providing affordable and accessible television viewing to people in remote and rural areas of India who may not have access to cable or dish services.

DD Free Dish is funded by the Indian government and is advertiser-supported, meaning that it is free for viewers and is financed through the sale of advertising slots on the channels. The service has become increasingly popular in India and is available in a growing number of households across the country.
