Dear Sajan, As we have enough experience working with the Government machinery, it is my humble suggestion that this is the gap that has to be filled up by CRF for the protection of the Community Radio Practicioners.
With warm regards, James.

From 'Friends' - Season 9, Ep. 913 Dear Vickram, Both the notices -- to those who have signed GOPA and to Letter of Indent (well, that's what it says) holders -- are available on the Ministry's website.

The deadline to submit info on our CRs is 30 June. Till date, I have not received any information. I am still in Delhi! My staff says there is no information from the Ministry! All I know is from you people that they have asked for something. Now, without knowing what exactly they want from us, which format, etc, how do I furnish this information. How to furnish this information which is not asked of me? Any ideas? ==================================== Rev Dr Richard Rego SJ Director, SARANG SAC 107.8FM Community Radio Head & Asst Prof., MCMS Dept of Mass Communication St Aloysius College; P.B. 720 Mangalore - 575003. www.richardrego.wordpress.com www.staloysiuscollege.wordpress.com 0824-2449706. +919448546425.

Today is Saturday, June 26. Have the stations had enough time to receive, fill in, and return to Delhi each and every letter for the purpose 'of updating its [the Ministry's] database'?
