7 OBJECTIVE OF ALL INDIA RADIO A national service planned, developed and operated by the Prasar Bharati, India s Public Service Broadcaster. Sound broadcasting started in India in 1927 with the proliferation of private radio clubs. The operations of All India Radio began formally in 1936, as a government organization, with clear objectives to inform, educate and entertain the masses. Broadcasting in India, being a national service, constitutes the most powerful medium of mass communication. It plays a significant role, as a medium of information and education, in a developing country, where the reach of other communicating media is not extensive. All India Radio keeps the people all over the country informed quickly about Government policies, plans, programmes and achievements, through the medium of sound broadcasting with a variety of programmes. It also keeps the people informed of the important news and current events of topical interest and provides an appreciable amount of entertaining programmes. Through its broadcasting, AIR seeks to promote education, national integration and also develop various aspects of Indian culture. It also gives timely assistance to public and Government Departments by quick dissemination of information during natural calamities. It runs a Commercial service which helps in promoting sale of goods and services through advertisement. In short, it informs, educates and entertains people in different languages, through a variety of programmes on cultural, educational, scientific, agricultural, health, hygiene, fine arts, socio-cultural themes, etc. and earns substantial revenue for the Government through Commercial Broadcasting. ALL INDIA RADIO The Director General, All India Radio is responsible for the overall administration of the All India Radio network. When India attained Independence in 1947, AIR had a network of six stations and a complement of 18 transmitters. The coverage was 2.5% of the area and just 11% of the population. Rapid expansion of the network took place post Independence. AIR today has a network of 237 broadcasting centres with 149 medium frequency(mw), 54 high frequency (SW) and 177 FM transmitters. The coverage is 91.85% of the area, serving 99.18% of the people in the largest democracy of the world. AIR covers 24 Languages and 146 dialects in home services. In Externel services, it covers 27 languages; 17 national and 10 foreign languages.
