Revised Community Radio Station Guidelines
The Revised Community Radio Station Guidelines, released in February 2024, mark a significant step towards the expansion and empowerment of community radio in India. These guidelines increase the number of stations an entity can operate, raise advertising time and rates, and mandate the formation of committees with local community representation, including a 50% quota for women. They aim to strengthen local voices and address community-specific issues through radio broadcasting in local languages and dialects, thus fostering community engagement and cultural preservation.
