About Dataset

The DD India Broadcast Dataset is a curated collection of national news bulletins, reports, interviews, and special programs from DD India, captured in high-quality audio-visual format. It provides diverse real-world content covering politics, economy, society, environment, and international affairs, making it valuable for media analytics and digital governance research. Designed for AI and ML development, the dataset supports tasks such as speech-to-text modelling, content classification, topic and entity detection, sentiment analysis, and automated summarization. Its multimodal structure—combining video, audio, and textual cues—enables researchers and developers to build and evaluate advanced NLP and video-understanding systems. This dataset is suitable for institutions working on news monitoring, public communication tools, and AI-driven media analysis.

“The data so shared shall be used only for training and not for any commercial purposes. As the broadcast material on DD extensively involves third party content used by DD under licensing arrangements with external agencies, any commercialization may invite legal and financial complications.”
