  • Community Radio Journalism in India
    News by any other name: community radio journalism in India Bridget Backhaus* Griffith University, Australia Abstract Community radio journalism is a cultural resource that offers a voice to local communities and works to democratise media landscapes. Despite its indisputable value, community radio journalism in India faces a unique set of challenges: the foremost being that, officially, it does not exist. According to government policy, community radio stations are prohibited from broadcasting any news and current affairs content. The situation is further complicated by the presence of a development discourse underpinning the entire rationale for the sector. Instead of serving their listeners, community radio stations are beholden to a nebulous ‘development’ agenda. Under such circumstances, it is unsurprising that community radio journalism in India is relatively unexplored in the literature. This paper aims to address this gap by exploring how community radio practitioners in India source content and work around their restrictions in order to provide their listeners with relevant information and news. Keywords Community radio, India, news, journalism, development, social change Introduction Community radio is considered to be a voice for the voiceless and a stronghold of alternative views. Similarly, community radio journalism also has a tradition of democratising the media and acting as a cultural resource to provide communities with a local voice (Forde, Meadows & Foxwell-Norton, 2002). In India however, community radio journalism faces a unique set of challenges: the foremost of which being that, officially, it does not exist. Government policy prevents community radio stations in India from broadcasting any news or current affairs coverage. Employing the concept of community radio as rhizome as a theoretical framework, this article explores the fluid and contingent nature of community radio news and journalism in an environment where it officially does not exist.

  • A Study on the Role of Public and Private Sector Radio in Women's
    Athens Journal of Mass Media and Communications- Volume 4, Issue 2 – Pages 121-140 A Study on the Role of Public and Private Sector Radio in Women’s Development with Special Reference to India By Afreen Rikzana Abdul Rasheed Neelamalar Maraimalai† Radio plays an important role in the lives of women belonging to all sections of society, but especially for homemakers to relieve them from isolation and help them to lighten their spirit by hearing radio programs. Women today play almost every role in the Radio Industry - as Radio Jockeys, Program Executives, Sound Engineers and so on in both public and private radio broadcasting and also in community radio. All India Radio (AIR) constitutes the public radio broadcasting sector of India, and it has been serving to inform, educate and entertain the masses. In addition, the private radio stations started to emerge in India from 2001. The study focuses on private and public radio stations in Chennai, which is an important metropolitan city in India, and on how they contribute towards the development of women in society. Keywords: All India Radio, private radio station, public broadcasting, radio, women’s development Introduction Women play a vital role in the process of a nation’s change and development. The Indian Constitution provides equal status to men and women. The status of women in India has massively transformed over the past few years in terms of their access to education, politics, media, art and culture, service sectors, science and technology activities etc. (Agarwal, 2008). As a result, though Indian women have the responsibilities of maintaining their family’s welfare, they also enjoy more liberty and opportunities to chase their dreams.

  • Radio and Rural Penetration in India
    Radio and Rural Penetration in India Radio in India has a long history of both social change and agricultural extension activitiesThe history of broadcasting in India is deeply rooted in development discourse and colonialism. The first radio broadcasting in India took place as a commercial venture; the Indian Broadcasting Company (IBC) began broadcasting from its first station in Bombay (Mumbai) in 1927 (Kumar, 2003). The IBC lasted just over 2 years before going into liquidation, with the high costs of radio sets, difficulties associated with collecting license fees and „Indian conditions and traditions‟ blamed for its failure (Kumar, 2003). The Government of India took control after this and introduced the Indian Wireless Telegraphy Act of 1933 to deal with the evasion of license fee payment while also effectively making the possession of radio receivers and equipment without a license illegal (Pavarala & Malik, 2007). While broadcasting in India more broadly was struggling to find its feet, there were some early experiments that could be considered precursors to the community radio. Several public servants working in rural areas made cases for local broadcasting in local dialects with content that was relevant to the everyday lives of the listeners (Page & Crawley, 2001). Experiments were conducted in Lahore, Poona (Pune), Delhi, and Peshawar, though none survived very long with even the successful projects absorbed into the national broadcaster and subsequently losing much of the local focus (Page & Crawley, 2001). The British investment and interest in Indian broadcasting increased around the second World War with Sir John Reith, Founder and First Director General of the BBC, arguing that central control was essential for efficiency: this structure and Reith‟s paternalistic legacy—„to “improve” the masses by giving them not what they sought to hear, but what they ought to hear‟—influenced AIR for many years to come (Kumar, 2003, p.

  • The Ambivalent State and the Media in India: Between Elite Domination and the Public Interest
    International Journal of Communication 8 (2014), 466–482 1932–8036/20140005 The Ambivalent State and the Media in India: Between Elite Domination and the Public Interest PRADIP THOMAS Centre for Communication & Social Change University of Queensland The inability of the state in India to either translate existing media policies into practice, or create media policies and regulatory processes that correspond with the emergent reality of convergent media, is a reflection of its ambivalence—caught as if were between the demands from its interests groups and the compulsions stemming from the need to engage with a populist politics. This article explores issues related to the emerging political economy of communications in India with a specific emphasis on the nature of media ownership and control within a media market that is increasingly controlled by business interests and political parties. It also tries to make sense of the efficacy of counter-movements including community radio, free and open source software. The emergence of the BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) nations and, in particular, the rise of China as an economic powerhouse have led to analyses of real and imagined power shifts in the contemporary global political economy (see The BRICS Report, 2012; Kobayashi-Hillary, 2008). There is little evidence of BRICS being more than an ideological gathering of nations, given that the economies of the BRICS nations are integrated with the global economy and in some ways are tied to U.S. interests. Close to 80% of India’s software exports are, for example, to the U.S. market. A report by Simon (2011) authored for the European Union highlights the growth that has occurred in ICT sectors in the BRICS nations along with their continuing dependencies on overseas firms.

Community radio is managed, run, controlled and owned by a community for the benefit of the community and serves the needs, interests and aspirations of a community. CR (Community Radio) gives marginalized communities where their voice is not heard earlier, the CR gives them an opportunity to express their views where in the mainstream media these voices are not provided any space or time. Voluntary organizations, civic groups, NGO’s, Women’s groups/organizations, etc. are now entering into broadcasting to share, express, empower, give voice, to many communities to benefit them with the broadcast. In community radio the public are voluntarily participating and producing programmes for themselves for their own benefit. CR plays an important role in the lives of women as it creates awareness, provides information and education, improves their skills and on the whole it promotes social, cultural, political and economic development or empowerment of women. Many studies have proved that community radio is an instrument of power in changing the lives of women.
