Television in Tajikistan

Television in Tajikistan began in the late 1950s, when the Tajik Soviet Socialist Republic still existed as constituent republic of the Soviet Union. The television system of Tajikistan, like other countries of the former USSR, is done using SECAM standard. In 1932, the Committee for Radiofication and Broadcasting under the Council of People's Commissars of the Tajik SSR was created, changing its name few times and known since 1978 as the State Committee of the Tajik SSR on Television and Radio Broadcasting, which launched the Tajik Radio station.
