LeTV has first ‘Le Meetup’ in Bengaluru
BENGALURU: LeTV held its first Le Meetup with its super fans in Bengaluru on Saturday. The meet witnessed a full house gathering of LeTV’s Superfans, bloggers, keen tech enthusiasts and influencers from the city who had an exclusive hands-on experience of LeTV’s products even before sales kicked off in India.
Le Meetup has been conceived and implemented as a platform to bring its Superfans and blogger community together and listen to them speak and experience Le Future up-close. The participation from Superfans and bloggers made the event a lively, interactive exchange rather than just a one-way communication. It turned out to be a great opportunity to meet and chat with fellow Superfans, bloggers, LeTV staff and take away LeTV super products.
The meetup had an exclusive Q&A session and allowed an open dialogue between fans, bloggers, YouTubers, and Le staff.
LeTV head of digital marketing Ivan Wang said, “It has been a truly rewarding experience interacting with our fans and followers. We recognise that they are vital and hence we have ensured that our comment response rate is 98 per cent and response time is three minutes. This is a new benchmark in the industry and has been acknowledged by our fans in this very forum. Thank you all for the overwhelming response, your feedback matters and we will very closely consider them!”
LeTV shared its focus for India as a key market, which along with the US is part of its expansion plan. The company also intends to match the product launches in India with that of global launches. The company will have a preview event on 5 January where it will make more confirmed announcements on its launch date. Le Meetups will be held in multiple cities the next one will be held in Delhi on 30 December and 9 January, followed by one in Hyderabad.

OneOTT partners with UP govt for Project GANGA broadband rollout
Initiative to connect 2M plus households, empower 8,000–10,000 entrepreneurs in 2–3 years.
MUMBAI: Uttar Pradesh just got a digital Ganga flow because when broadband meets ambition, even villages start streaming faster than city traffic. OneOTT Intertainment Ltd. (OIL), the broadband arm of Hinduja Global Solutions (HGS) under the Hinduja Group, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the State Transformation Commission (STC), Government of Uttar Pradesh, for Project GANGA (Government Assisted Network for Growth & Advancement).
The MoU, signed on 7 March 2026 in the presence of Uttar Pradesh Finance & Parliamentary Affairs Minister Suresh Kumar Khanna, aims to empower 8,000–10,000 local entrepreneurs at the Nyaya Panchayat level as independent Digital Service Providers (DSPs). A significant number of these DSPs are expected to be women. The initiative will deliver high-speed broadband to over 2 million households in the next 2–3 years and create direct and indirect employment for more than 100,000 individuals.
Project GANGA will support government priorities in digital education, healthcare and public services while enabling MSMEs and enterprises with reliable connectivity. DSPs will receive structured training, financing assistance, network build-out support and technology enablement.
STC CEO Manoj Kumar Singh said, “Project GANGA is a significant step toward expanding inclusive digital infrastructure in Uttar Pradesh. By empowering local entrepreneurs, the program will strengthen service delivery and ensure affordable digital access for underserved communities.”
OIL, MD & CEO and HGS whole-time director Vynsley Fernandes added, “This initiative reflects our long-term commitment to enabling digital access and economic opportunity at scale. Project GANGA is structured as a multi-year program focused on entrepreneur onboarding, network deployment and workforce development.”
OIL brings execution strength backed by HGS and NXTDIGITAL’s national footprint, which already connects over 5 million homes across more than 4,500 pin codes in 1,500 cities and towns through 15,000 plus franchise partners and over 2 lakh kilometres of fibre infrastructure. The ecosystem will support broadband, IPTV, OTT, CCTV, satellite internet and cybersecurity solutions for households, businesses and public institutions.
In a state racing toward digital inclusion, Project GANGA isn’t just laying cables, it’s laying the foundation for millions to connect, learn, heal and earn, one Nyaya Panchayat at a time.
