Free school lessons on TV

The government runs free education channels on DTH TV: one NCERT channel for each class from 1 to 12 (PM eVidya), PM eVidya channels given to each state, and state channels such as KITE VICTERS. A child with only a TV can watch the day's lessons, and each channel on CIET-NCERT's list has a YouTube page for missed ones. Shishya runs none of these channels. Everything below is from the official pages, read 27 Oct 2026.

NCERT's channel for each class (PM eVidya)

CIET-NCERT says these channels carry lessons based on the NCERT curriculum; the schedule prints each programme's medium. The DD Free Dish and Dish TV numbers are from CIET-NCERT's channel sheet, which prints no date (your set-top box's guide has the final number). "Today on TV" is copied from SWAYAM PRABHA's programme schedule for each channel, as printed; each programme repeats through the day.

Sources: CIET-NCERT DTH page ↗, channel sheet (PDF) ↗, SWAYAM PRABHA school channels ↗. Programme titles are shown as printed; Shishya does not match them to its chapter pages, because the schedule's chapter numbers can follow a different book edition.

Channels by state and UT

200 PM eVidya DTH channels are on CIET-NCERT's list (read 27 Oct 2026). CIET-NCERT's guidelines say the 200 channels are meant to serve states' curricula in regional languages. Where a channel's name states classes, they are shown; otherwise open its page to see what it carries.
