Revolutionising radio broadcasting in India– 91 new FM transmitters inaugurated in one go!

Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to inaugurate 91 new FM transmitters of 100 W, which will further enhance radio connectivity in India. The expansion includes 84 districts across 18 states and 2 union territories, with a focus on border areas and aspirational districts. The expansion will cover an additional 2 crore people who previously did not have access to the medium and will result in an expansion of coverage in about 35,000 sq km area. Prime Minister Modi has been a firm believer in radio's ability to reach the masses, as demonstrated by his Mann ki Baat programme, which is now approaching its 100th episode.
