Ravi Prakash, the former CEO of TV9, who had an unceremonious exit from the channel, is all set to launch a news channel with the financial and political support from BJP central leadership.
Ravi Prakash recently was granted anticipatory bail in the case filed by TV9 new management.
Even while he was working as CEO of TV9, Ravi Prakash floated several companies like “R Factory”, “Mojo TV”, “Toli Velugu”, etc.
While “Toli Velugu” has been scrapped and “Mojo TV” has been taken over by Alanda Media, Ravi Prakash is now said to be working from his “R Factory” office in Banjara Hills.
He is now working with some of his former colleagues at this office to launch the news channel.
Speculations among the media circles are that he will name the channel as R Plus. He will now take on KCR’s government with the help of BJP that is eying for power in 2024.
Till he was in TV9, he put all his efforts to tarnish the image of Modi and BJP and he did all the drama when Sabarimala episode was going on using Mojo TV. Ironically, he found shelter in BJP.
