YK TV – Andhra News… Andhari News…

At YK TV we are a lot more than just the typical news platform. We are the voice of the land, the people, and the heritage of Andhra Pradesh.  Based in the centre of the state at Vijayawada we do nothing but cover Andhra’s news, issues and events with authenticity and accountability.

We are a group of professionals from the fields of Journalism, Mass Communication, Design, Law, Human Resource, etc. Several of us have extensive experience of over 10 years across some of the best institutions including The Hindu, Indian Express, Eenadu, Gemini, Times of India etc. We bring a unique combination of experience, ethics, and energy together for journalism.

Journalism is not just about the news headline. It is about recording the essence of our land. It is about giving a voice to the farmer in Anantapur, student in Guntur, artisan in Rajahmundry, and entrepreneur in Visakhapatnam. It is about documenting Andhra’s rich culture, political history, economic development, and aspirations of the people of Andhra.

Our Telugu culture focuses on an ancient legacy from Andhra society, in art, literature, cinema, social reform, and so on. We continue this legacy into the digital age, where our stories are imbued with the language, values, and identity of our people.

Our Commitment.

We are not just a media channel. We are a public service platform rooted in truth, ethics, and inclusion. Misinformation and fake news spread quickly nowadays. YK TV is a responsible media house. Here, we believe that facts are more important than speed. And people are more important than profit.

Integrity, resilience and community spirit lie at the heart of Andhra. We at Sakshi, by mixing advanced digital journalism with Telugu culture, carry the voice of the people not just in the state but national and global issues too.
