Added Sudhir Chaudhary, Editor, Zee News: “My innumerable interactions with people across India had revealed their urge to view Zee News even in remote locations, but were unable to afford a paid channel,†adding: “With Zee News going free to air, our constant endeavour to create news for public welfare will now finally also impact millions of lives in rural India.â€
