India Today Group's Vice Chairperson & Executive Editor-in-Chief, Kalli Purie, said, “Winning the ITA Channel of the Year awards is always very special to me, but winning them in an election year is even more special. It serves as validation of the democratic newsroom, especially in a time when political loyalties are running deep and high. Viewers chose India Today Television and Aaj Tak, and to me, this is encouragement that our approach—leaving no voice unheard and no stone unturned to bring you the news—is the right one.”
