Channel 1 (Bengali: চ্যানেল ওয়ান) was a Bangladeshi Bengali-language satellite and cable pay television channel owned by One Entertainment Limited, a sister concern of One Group. It was launched on 24 January 2006 and broadcast entertainment and news programming targeted toward all ages.[1] Channel 1 was headquartered in the Uday Tower situated in Gulshan, Dhaka. As it was using rented broadcasting equipment, which was against Bangladeshi law, the channel ceased broadcasting on 27 April 2010 after being ordered by the Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission.[2]
