Prasar Bharati Doordarshan Kendra Dehradun Empanelment of Stringers/Cameraman 2026

This opportunity is ideal for seasoned media professionals with strong, demonstrable experience in cinematography, videography, news gathering, and broadcast journalism. Candidates should possess relevant academic and technical qualifications, own suitable professional equipment, and have a proven track record in visuals coverage. Those based in or willing to cover multiple districts across Uttarakhand are particularly well-suited. The role demands individuals who are proactive, have a keen news sense, and can operate efficiently under contractual terms.

Individuals seeking permanent, salaried employment should not apply, as this is for empanelment on a per-coverage contractual basis. Those without their own professional equipment (camera, audio gear, transport) and a demonstrable portfolio of visual assignments will find it difficult to meet the requirements. Candidates lacking experience in broadcast journalism or unable to cover assignments across the specified districts in Uttarakhand would also not be suitable.

Empanelment with Doordarshan Kendra Dehradun, a regional unit of Prasar Bharati, offers a significant opportunity to work with India's national public broadcaster. While it's a contractual arrangement, it provides a platform for media professionals to contribute to national news and current affairs. It offers excellent exposure and networking within the government media ecosystem, enhancing one's professional credibility and potentially providing consistent work for those meeting performance standards.
