News18 Gujarati

News18 Gujarati is one of those regional news channels that feels more connected to its audience than the national networks ever do. It's not trying to cover the entire country, it's fixated on Gujarat, and that's its strength. The morning block is packed with local politics and constituency-level reporting, stuff you wouldn't catch on Times Now or Republic. The evening primetime gets heavier on crime and civic issues, with a tone that's less shouty than Hindi news rivals. Breaking news coverage is decent, they're quick to go live when something happens in Ahmedabad or Surat. But the real draw is the hyperlocal detail. If you want to understand what's actually happening in Gujarat beyond the headlines, this is where you'd look. The studio is modest, the anchors speak Gujarati (the channel is in Gujarati, despite the English metadata), and the production isn't flashy. That's fine. It's journalism, not spectacle. You can watch News18 Gujarati live on Tvivu to get a genuine sense of the state's news cycle. Among the News tv India regional offerings, this one prioritizes substance over style.
