Most DD channels (such as DD Bharati and regional kendra channels) are definitely irrelevant but DD is doing a fantastic job with DD News and DD India. It has better news coverage than almost all the private channels, that too in HD and with superior graphics that are not flashy. The upcoming Sansad TV (while technically not owned by DD) is also in HD. This is enough reason to continue supporting Doordarshan, along with the fact that it owns India’s only free DTH service.
