Then Jatiya Sangsad member Md. Mamunur Rashid Kiron-owned Global Television's license to broadcast was granted by the Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission in January 2017.[3][4] Its frequency allocation was granted in May 2018.[5] Before its launch, Global Television had uploaded its content, including dramas, onto its YouTube channel, which gained one million subscribers by the end of 2021.[6][7]

On 18 June 2022, journalists working for the channel formed human chains in protest against attacks against journalists.[8] Global Television commenced official transmissions on 30 June 2022 at 16:00 (BST), as the thirty-eighth television channel overall to be launched in Bangladesh.[9] On 24 July 2022, three new drama television series, Monjil, Nirdosh, and Songsar, premiered on Global Television.[10]

On 10 September 2024, the Bangladesh Satellite Company Limited temporarily shut the broadcasts of Global Television down at 14:00 (BST) due to failures in paying dues, as stated in a press release.[11][12]
