NTV was a general entertainment channel operated by the Sri Lanka Rupavahini Corporation.

History

NTV began broadcasting in November 2009 amidst controversy from Sri Lankan netizens due to limited coverage and lack of carriage by Dialog TV.[1]

The channel rebranded in 2013, in time for the 2013 CHOGM.[2]

The channel didn't make any original content, and the schedule consisted of shows that weren't airing on the other SLRC channels, accompanied by some of Channel Eye's productions. It closed down in February 2015.
