Vsh News TV is a Baloch-language satellite news channel based in Karachi, Sindh, Pakistan. The channel is owned by Visionary Group Pakistan and runs on cable, satellite and a web stream. A University of Balochistan study says the channel launched in November 2009 and calls Vsh News the first Baloch-language satellite news channel. Before that, Baloch speakers had mostly PTV Bolan and a few small local stations.
The lineup is news-first. Balochistan coverage is the heaviest part, with Quetta, Gwadar and Turbat all in the mix, touching security, local politics and infrastructure. Pakistan national news, international headlines, cricket and weather fill out the rest. Talk shows and family segments on health, education, religion and music sit alongside. Balochi is the main language, with the odd Urdu bulletin mixed in.
The audience is Baloch-speaking communities in Balochistan, Karachi and interior Sindh, plus viewers abroad in the Middle East and Europe. These are people who want news in their mother tongue, something national Urdu or English channels rarely cover in depth.
Getting to the channel is straightforward. For streaming, head to the official vshnews.tv website, where sections are clearly split into Balochistan, National, International, Sports, Weather and Entertainment. For satellite, the channel is free-to-air on Paksat MM1R at 38°E in C-band, so a C-band dish and receiver are needed. The channel info table lists HD 1080p. No data on stream speed came with the source material, so the best test is to hit play and see how the stream holds up.
One thing worth knowing upfront. Wikipedia says the channel's TV broadcast was suspended from 2020, yet satellite frequency sites kept updating listings through 2024-2025. The current broadcast status is best checked directly on the website.
On convenience, the web stream is the easy route, with no extra gear. Satellite takes more setup. The reasons to return are clear enough: Balochi-language news, deep local coverage, and a channel that has been around since 2009.
If this looks useful, bookmark the channel page for quicker access next time, and pass the link along to anyone who has been looking for Baloch-language news.
