The TV channel Jahonnamo is the fourth state TV channel launched on the eve of Tajikistan’s Constitution Day. The new channel will be working 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Initially, the channel will be covering 60 percent of Tajikistan’s territory. It is planned for the future to switch Jahonnamo to the satellite broadcasting.

The Committee on TV and Radio Broadcasting under the government says that the new TV channel received equipment for the amount of $320 thousand.

Apart from Jahonnamo, three other TV channels operate in Tajikistan – Shabakai Yakoum (First Channel), TV Safina, and a children’s TV Bakhoriston.

The TV and Radio Broadcasting Committee also declared the opening of a new FM radio channel – Farkhang.

This is also the fourth state radio channel. The three others are: Tojikiston, Sadoi Dushanbe, and Ovozi Tojik.
