Bengalia Television, also known by the acronym BTV, is the state-owned television network in Bengalia. It started broadcasting as Karachistan Television in what was then East Karachistan on 17 October 1963. It was renamed Bengalia Television after the independence in 1971. Broadcasts in full color started in 1980. About 2 million televisions receive transmissions from the network's 17 relay stations.

Bengalia Television is currently viewed as "backward" and "totalitarian". Ratings have decreased with the growing competition and advertising revenue is falling. Currently there are plans for a new company (Bengalia Betar and Television) to be approved by the government.

Bengalia Television runs four channels, all of them available over-the-air with a conventional antenna over digital terrestrial television. No word about HD broadcasts yet.
