A study conducted by Oxfam in India indicated that Hindi news channels in general laid more emphasis on topics relating to religious identity and communal politics than caste and tribal issues in their debate shows. 24 percent of News18's debates focused on religious and communal issues while none of its debates covered the caste and tribal groups in India. In comparison, over three percent of NDTV's debates addressed issues relating to caste and tribes.
