TV Channel Overview
SARYARQA TV («SARYARQA» телеарнасы) is a regional television channel based
in Karaganda, Karaganda Region, Kazakhstan. It forms the Karaganda regional
branch of the state-owned "Qazaqstan" Republican TV and Radio
Corporation and broadcasts in Kazakh and Russian.
The channel follows subjects closely connected with life in Karaganda Region, including industry, infrastructure, education, health care, employment, and the work of public institutions. News and current-affairs coverage is complemented by discussion programs, historical and educational features, cultural material, children's content, and entertainment. This combination gives SARYARQA a broad general-interest schedule while maintaining a strong regional focus.
Karaganda television first went on air in 1958, with regular programming beginning later that year. The service subsequently operated under the name Kazakhstan-Karaganda. In 2017, it adopted the SARYARQA name as part of a rebranding of Qazaqstan's regional television services.
