One of its programmes, ''Amrao pari'' (We, too, Can), won the International Children's Day of Broadcasting Award at the [[32nd International Emmy Awards]] in 2004. The documentary was shot and directed by 18 teenagers from Bangladesh, and was focused on the story of Abul Khaer, a 9-year-old boy, who stopped a passenger train from approaching a disjointed railtrack, and prevented a train disaster.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.unicef.org/videoaudio/video_24220.html |title=ATN Bangla wins International Children's Day of Broadcasting Award |date=2004 |website=Unicef}}</ref><ref name="emmy">{{cite news |last=Deepita |first=Novera |date=4 February 2006 |title=From BTV to ETV and beyond: The television revolution |url=http://archive.thedailystar.net/suppliments/2006/15thanniv/celebrating_bd/celeb_bd18.htm |work=15th Anniversary Supplement |publisher=The Daily Star |access-date=4 February 2006}}</ref>

In 2016, the channel was reprimanded by British telecom regulator [[Ofcom]] due to violations of domestic [[product placement]] regulations (which require placements to be "editorially justified", not place "undue prominence", and have on-air disclosure).<ref name=guardian-ppofcom>{{cite web|title=Ofcom confirms product placement on UK TV|url=https://www.theguardian.com/media/2010/dec/20/ofcom-product-placement-uk-tv|work=The Guardian|access-date=August 25, 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140910195419/http://www.theguardian.com/media/2010/dec/20/ofcom-product-placement-uk-tv|archive-date=September 10, 2014|url-status=live|df=mdy-all}}</ref><ref name=bbc-productplacement>{{cite news|title=Product placement ban on British TV lifted|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-12593061|work=BBC News|access-date=August 25, 2013|date=February 28, 2011|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110520030133/http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-12593061|archive-date=May 20, 2011|url-status=live|df=mdy-all}}</ref> ATN Bangla attempted to defend the violations by arguing that its local subsidiary did not directly benefit from the placements (as the brands placed do not operate in Europe), but Ofcom still found the channel liable for violations of its broadcasting code.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.bizasialive.com/atn-bangla-rapped-for-product-placement-error/|title=ATN Bangla rapped for 'Product Placement' error|last=Baddhan|first=Raj|date=2016-03-21|website=BizAsia|language=en-GB|access-date=2019-12-10}}</ref>
