RT India于2025年12月5日在俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔·普京访问新德里期间发起, RT India launched on December 5, 2025, during Russian President Vladimir Putin’s visit to New Delhi, marking the state-funded broadcaster’s largest international expansion. 该频道每天播出4个英语节目,目的是在对非西方观点的兴趣日益浓厚的情况下,为西方媒体叙事提供一个替代方案。 The channel, which will air four English-language programs daily, aims to offer an alternative to Western media narratives amid growing interest in non-Western perspectives. 其首秀在德里展开了一场高调的宣传活动，包括套娃安装和地铁接管，同时印俄关系加强，包括PTI与塔斯社之间的新闻共享协议。 Its debut featured a high-profile campaign across Delhi, including a Matryoshka doll installation and metro takeover, and coincided with strengthened India-Russia ties, including a news-sharing agreement between PTI and TASS. 虽然有些人认为RT India是人与人之间联系的桥梁和印度媒体景观的多样化者, 但对于国家支持的影响力, 特别是考虑到RT在欧洲的禁令, While some view RT India as a bridge for people-to-people connections and a diversifier in India’s media landscape, concerns remain over state-backed influence, especially given RT’s bans in Europe. 在发射之前,普京赞扬印度的全球作用及其与俄罗斯的持续能源贸易,尽管卢比创下历史新低。 The launch follows Putin’s praise for India’s global role and its continued energy trade with Russia, even as the rupee hit a record low.
