Arunachal govt to set up community radio stations in all dists
1 2 Itanagar: Arunachal Pradesh govt is pushing forward with a plan to establish community radio stations (CRSs) in all the districts, with a strong focus on enhancing grassroots communication, disseminating govt policies effectively and promoting local socio-economic and cultural development. The move aims to transform the way information reaches communities by adopting a two-way communication model that values both outreach and feedback. Information and public relations secretary Nyali Ete, through a video conference on Friday, addressed all the deputy commissioners to discuss the strategic rollout of the CRSs, an official statement said. Ete emphasised that these stations will not treat districts as homogenous units but will instead cater to the distinct needs of multiple communities within each district. He said CRSs will serve as vital conduits for both spreading information and gathering community input, which can, in turn, shape policy decisions. Senior officials including, IPR director Gijum Tali, deputy director Marbang Ezing, photographic officer Manoj Bhattacharjee and DGM of Broadcast Engineering Consultants India Ltd (BECIL) Khuswinder Singh Bhatia, attended the meeting. Key principles outlined by Ete include the requirement that CRSs be operated by non-profit entities to ensure credibility and public trust, and that at least 50 per cent of the broadcast content must be localised, featuring official information, community-driven discussions and participation through talk shows.
