ETV Bal Bharat is a group of children’s TV channels in India, owned by the Telugu-language ETV Network. There are two primary channels with multiple audio feeds, one each in SD and HD, and twelve SD channels in various languages (including English and Hindi). All 14 channels were launched on 27 April 2021.
These are the broadcaster’s first non-Telugu channels since 2015, when ETV-branded channels were sold to Reliance Industries Limited–owned Network18 and Viacom18, and rebranded as either News18 or Colors. In many Indian languages, Bal means child and Bharat means India.
