Radio is a medium that reaches out to millions of people at a time.

Chandigarh: Radio is a medium that reaches out to millions of people at a time. In the Corona era, radio not only entertained with songs, rather it did not back down in doing social work whether it is a mask, sanitize or convince the labourers on their way to the village or distribute food to the people.

Radio left no stone unturned to play its role. I would like to praise the radio jockey who expresses his words in such a way that everyone wants to listen. Today I am saying all these things because today is World Radio Day and on the second day of the 9th International Festival of Journalism, we are celebrating Radio Day said by Dr. Sandeep Marwah, Chancellor of AAFT University, who started Raipur Radio today.

In this discussion, Dr. Sunil Parashar said that today every person is becoming a journalist because he has a creature called mobile that captures everything. I am calling mobile a creature because it does not have the ability to move, but it has a lot of ability to drive people. Fake news has emerged as a new threat, whose broadcasters present themselves as journalists and tarnish this great profession.
