To provide students with industry-relevant exposure, DAV University organised a comprehensive expert talk on “Television Production: Anchors and news readers”. The session was hosted by the Department of Students’ Welfare and featured media expert and television journalist Agiapal Singh Randhawa as the keynote speaker.

The event attracted a large number of students from the Department of Journalism & Mass Communication, Law and English, all eager to gain first-hand knowledge of the television news industry. The interactive session covered a wide range of topics essential for aspiring media professionals, including news anchoring, voice modulation, scripting, live reporting and on-camera presentation.

Randhawa, widely respected for his extensive experience in broadcast journalism, delivered an engaging and informative session that blended theoretical concepts with practical demonstrations. Drawing on his years in the field, he shared behind-the-scene stories and offered live examples of anchoring styles, voice control techniques and scripting strategies used in television production.

Dr Kamaljeet Kaur Sidhu, Dean, Students’ Welfare, welcomed Randhawa and emphasised the university’s focus on bridging the gap between academic learning and professional industry standards. “Sessions like these give our students a real-world glimpse into the media industry. They play a crucial role in nurturing confident, competent and ethically aware professionals,” she said.
