Live India is an Indian Hindi TV channel owned by Broadcast Initiatives Ltd., focusing on news and commentary. The channel came in the limelight for wrong reasons when it conducted a sting operation covering a porn racket by a school teacher which was later proved fake by a high court verdict. It was earlier known as Janmat, when it was focused on "views"; now the channel is sometimes called Live India (Janmat).
In a Rs. 400 million upgrade in August 2007, it opened news bureaus at Ahmedabad, Lucknow, Srinagar, Chandigarh, Bhopal, Hyderabad, Bangalore, Chennai, Bhubaneswar, Kolkata and Guwahati as well as its earlier offices at Mumbai and Delhi.
Sudhir Chaudhary is the CEO of Live India.

Famous quotes containing the words live and/or india:
“The question of place and climate is most closely related to the question of nutrition. Nobody is free to live everywhere; and whoever has to solve great problems that challenge all his strength actually has a very restricted choice in this matter. The influence of climate on our metabolism, its retardation, its acceleration, goes so far that a mistaken choice of place and climate can not only estrange a man from his task but can actually keep it from him: he never gets to see it.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“But nothing in India is identifiable, the mere asking of a question causes it to disappear or to merge in something else.”
—E.M. (Edward Morgan)
