Nexus Television
Bangladeshi non-fiction television channel
Nexus Television (Bengali: নেক্সাস টেলিভিশন) is a Bangladeshi Bengali-language satellite and cable infotainment television channel owned by S. Alam Group of Industries. It was launched on 30 July 2021 as the country's first non-fiction infotainment television channel. Unlike other television channels in Bangladesh, the channel does not air drama, movies, and news programming.
History
In November 2013, Nexus Television was initially licensed by the Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission as Rangdhanu Television (Bengali: রংধনু টেলিভিশন; lit. 'rainbow'). After receiving a frequency allocation to broadcast in January 2015, it began experimental broadcasts using that name in December 2019 via the Bangabandhu-1 satellite, which went for twenty-four hours a day. It had also originally planned to commence transmissions by the next few months. Later, Rangdhanu Television was renamed to its current name in 2020.
Nexus Television officially began broadcasting on 30 July 2021 at 18:00 (BST), with the "Jiboner Bondhon" (জীবনের বন্ধন; lit. 'The bond of life') slogan. In its launch, Bangladesh's Minister of Information, Hasan Mahmud, has stated that the channel will "play an important role in building Bangabandhu's dream of a golden Bengal under prime minister Sheikh Hasina."
Nexus Television was the broadcasting partner of the 2020 Anannya Top Ten Awards, held on 28 December 2021. During the International Women's Day on 8 March 2022, Nexus Television organized the 'Women Entrepreneur Fair' held for two days in its headquarters in Gulshan, and was broadcast live on the channel.

Why this record matters
“Nexus Television” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Nexus, Television and Bangladeshi provides the most credible route into that argument.
Reception evidence should be dated and situated: later canonical status may differ sharply from the work’s initial circulation. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 20, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q110588865. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2021, 2013, 2015 and 2019.
Later fame can flatten the distinction between original context, subsequent adaptation and institutional collecting history. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
