A new weekly current-affairs programme of BBC Bangla titled ‘BBC Probaho’ was launched on Channel i yesterday. Presented by journalist Sharmin Rauma, ‘BBC Probaho’ will be broadcast live from the cable/satellite station’s Dhaka studios at prime time 9:30pm every Thursday from now on, while it will be repeated at 9:30am Bangladesh time on Fridays.  With hard-hitting interviews and debate, ‘BBC Probaho’ brings 25 minutes of in-depth reporting of key issues affecting Bangladesh today. The programme will feature international and business stories delivered by the BBC’s global network of correspondents and journalists.  
 Sharmin Rauma will conduct studio interviews and encourage direct engagement from audiences via the BBC Bangla social-media accounts on Facebook and Twitter. ‘BBC Probaho’ is produced by BBC Bangla’s Monowar Darpon.       
BBC Bangla Editor Sabir Mustafa said about the show, “The launch of BBC Probaho marks a new stage in the BBC’s decade-long collaboration with Channel i and a milestone in BBC Bangla’s presence on the Bangladeshi media scene. Adding to our radio, digital and mobile content, ‘BBC Probaho’ signals our commitment to the Bangladeshi audiences, ensuring they get our trusted news coverage on the platforms of their choice.”
Sharmin Rauma said, “I am thrilled to be fronting this new, dynamic news programme which I hope will become essential viewing for anyone who wants to be in the know on major issues affecting people in Bangladesh and beyond.”
Shykh Seraj, Head of News of Channel i, told: “‘BBC Probaho’ is a historic landmark achieved in the news and current-affairs scene in Bangladesh. Channel i has always been a trusted partner of BBC, starting off with BBC Bangladesh Sanglap, and now the road takes a new, exciting turn.”   
The launch of ‘BBC Probaho’ further expands the BBC Bangla offer on all platforms.  The BBC Bangla radio programmes are produced in London and Dhaka. The BBC’s Dhaka bureau is a production centre from where BBC Bangla’s two morning radio transmissions are anchored. While the website bbcbangla.com registers over a million unique visitors per month, the BBC Bangla Facebook page (www.facebook.com/BBCBengaliService) has over 5.2 million followers. BBC Bangla also offers a mobile news service, delivering 12 audio news and sports bulletins for mobile phone users in Bangladesh every day.
