The organization started as All India Radio (AIR) in the past and Doordarshan (DD) was born to cater to television services later and finally came Prasar Bharati (PB) by the enactment of an act by the parliament, which is visualized in the logo identity as emerging and evolving from the centre.

The new logo:

  • Blue also represents meanings of depth, trust, loyalty, sincerity, wisdom, confidence, stability, faith, and intelligence.
  • The colour blue also pays tribute to the Indian ethos and traditions associated with religious figures, and mythological characters found in the Indian miniature paintings.

Important takeaways for all competitive exams: 

  • Prasar Bharati CEO: Shashi Shekhar Vempati (2017–);
  • Prasar Bharati Founded: 23 November 1997;
