Q

Their hindi radio service was had Onkarnath Srivastav as its stalwarts and people in rural areas recongnized his voice in a very clear manner. When the company said it will close down its Hindi service due to paucity of funds, it led to such an outcry among its fans in India that the broadcaster was forced to retract its decision. Now, It has agreed to keep alive a one-hour daily transmission for a year as it explores commercial funding for the service. For decades, It has been their lifeline, not only for news and current affairs but as a credible source of analysis and world knowledge. It now states that if sustainable commercial funding can’t be found, then it’ll have to be closed by March 2012. Whose Hindi Radio Service ?
