News18 Uttar Pradesh/Uttarakhand has a stellar team of journalists and news producers led by anchor and managing editor Amish Devgan. The channel has planned special programming for the upcoming UP assembly elections as it strives to offer the most comprehensive coverage to its viewers. During its election coverage, the channel will not only host top politicians from across the spectrum but will also have elaborate ground reporting through its vast reporters’ network. A show that the channel has planned is Voter Ganga Kinare Wala that will cover upwards of 100 assembly seats situated along Ganga from Haridwar to Ballia. Another innovative show that is already on air is Chunavi Road Show that will cover 403 assembly seats in Uttar Pradesh.
