TECH IS THE NEW GOD Since ages, humans were either hunting for food or waiting for seeds to grow to cook food. Even in medieval times, mythical magicians would conjure food in fairytale stories. But guess what, fairytale stories are true now. The 10-min any food delivery era is here. It’s an everyday happening for us what was once the stuff of mythological tales. With #openai #deepseek and other GenAI becoming the holy truth, #Data and service is at our command. The Genie in the lamp is on your phone screen. Welcome to a magical new age of #magic called #Technology! Who would now be surprised at Spock standing at a glass door which opens automatically? It’s no more magic! We are in a world which is at our command!

Eighteen years ago, we launched PTC NEWS with a simple yet powerful vision—to be the voice of Punjab and Punjabis worldwide. Today, as I look back, I am overwhelmed with gratitude for the incredible journey we’ve shared together. PTC NEWS has not just topped the ratings charts year after year—it has become a lifeline for millions, delivering stories that matter, shaping opinions, and connecting the global Punjabi community. For me personally, this journey has been nothing short of inspirational. From every challenge we faced to every milestone we celebrated - from one small basement room to global offices - I’ve learned that with passion and perseverance, anything is possible. But today isn’t just about looking back—it’s about looking forward. The time has come to create new milestones, to dream even bigger. Thank you for believing in us. Together, let’s keep writing this incredible story of connection, culture, and community. The best is yet to come!

The @TRAI has sent its Recommendations to @MIB_India removing the “mandatory” satellite-based uplinking and downlinking of TV channels. Henceforward, “There shall be no restriction on the use of terrestrial communication technologies, systems and the entity may use more than one such systems, as per its business decision”. #Cloud Playouts, Fiber, Broadband based signal delivery will now be allowed to send signals to MSOs and DPOs.

15 Years of giving global platform to Punjab’s singing talent to emerge as future #Superstars is a highly satisfying feat. As said earlier, we are not in the business of television channels, we are in the business of #changinglives Three cheers to the new champion #BuntyBhandal @PTC_Network

MAN WHO GIFTED US A NEW INDIA NO MORE. Dr. Manmohan Singh (1932-2024): A scholar who wore power lightly, a statesman of quiet wisdom. The architect of India’s economic rise, he led with integrity and grace. A scholar, statesman, and inspiration—he will be deeply missed. RIP. #DrManmohanSingh #ManmohanSingh

Shyam Benegal: The Maverick Storyteller (1934-2024) Indian cinema lost its “Poet of Reality” in Shyam Benegal at the age of 90. A pioneer of parallel cinema, he turned the screen into a mirror, showcasing the contradictions of Indian society. From #Ankur to #Manthan, his films were always revolutions dealing with caste, gender and identity. He did not just make movies, he created a movement. Creator of #BharatEkKhoj and inspiration to greats, Shyam Babu was a highly skilled artist with an incredible insight. His cinematic legacy is timeless and serves as a reminder that words can manifest into action. #ShyamBenegal was not just a director – he was a phenomenon. An award should be instituted in his memory for “Makers of Parallel Cinema”.

नफ़रत की आँधी है गर चल रही मोहब्बत का जज़्बा भी कम तो नहीं. भाई भाई को लड़वाता शैतान फिरे, जिए सुकरात ‘ओ गौतम भी कम तो नहीं. - चरण दास सिद्धू If there is a storm of hatred blowing, the passion of love is also not less. The devil roams around making brothers fight brothers, Socrates and Gautam also lived no less. - Thus Spake Sidhu

As we bid adieu to a legend, we must ponder why tributes are flowing in from #PM to an ordinary citizen - #RatanTata is an undying symbol of Integrity, Ethics, Honesty, Care and Humility in a business world which supposedly requires none of these qualities. #Tata, Ratan Sir! Your legacy will live on!
