The Law Ministry is all set to launch its own television channel which will showcase discussions on issues like Triple Talaq and Uniform Civil Code (UCC) and present shows for legal awareness. There will also be debate shows on important judgements.

The ministry has sought a separate channel from a bouquet of 32 direct-to-home (DTH) channels launched by the Human Resource Development (HRD) Ministry called Swayam Prabha to broadcast programmes for school and university students, a report published in The Times of India, said. 

The Law Ministry sought the operational rights for one channel from HRD Ministry.
