CNN International South Asia is a Pan-South Asian English-language news channel based in New Delhi, India.

The channel is targeted toward India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bhutan, and Maldives.

The channel was completely run by TV18 Broadcast Limited, which only used the Cable News Network (CNN) brand name.

[2] In 2017, a retired Lieutenant General and now a frequent TV news analyst and commentatator, Talat Masood told CNN International about Pakistan's nuclear capabilities and nuclear deterrent against any attacks on the country.

This law's purpose was to have the foreign channels focus on local news events also, rather than rehash and rerun broadcasts of American and European TV programs.
