How is that possible - I thought the official memo had been released about the 
Rs 4 rate?

Gurgaon Ki Awaaz is the first and only civil-society-led community radio 
station in the National Capital Region of Delhi. Since 2009, we have been 
broadcasting 22X7, in Hindi and Haryanvi, with a team of community reporters 
who generate community content with community participation.

Here is the latest list of operational CR stations, LoI holders, applicants 
etc, as on 3 Aug 2012. 


There isn't much to cheer about -- ten years after the first CR Policy was 
unveiled, we have 135 operational community radio stations, of which about 40 
are licensed to civil society bodies. The rest of the licenses have gone to 
universities, private educational institutions and the occasional KVK. Even 
among the 42 NGO-run CR stations, I would be surprised if more than ten are in 
rural India. 


Of the 371 Letters of Intent issued so far, Tamil Nadu has the maximum of 51, 
of which 44 have been granted to educational institutions -- mostly private 
colleges -- and 7 to NGOs. Maharashtra, on the other hand, has 42 LoIs, of 
which 28 have gone to civil society organizations. 

No. of applications received so far from 2004 to 01.08.2012: (including 104 
against old guidelines): 1083 Letters of Intent (LOI)  issued: 371 Grant of 
Permission of Agreement(GOPA) signed: 180 

Operational Community Radio Stations: 135 Number of applications rejected: 
445 Applications under process: 267 Elsewhere, in terms of advertising support 
for CR stations, only 9 stations have been empanelled with DAVP. I hope the 
Forum or the stations listed below can give us an idea of the quantum of ads 
released by DAVP annually to CR stations.


List of Community Radio Stations empanelled with DAVP till 31st March, 2012.
1. Radio Mewat, Nuh, Mewat,2. Kumayun Vani, Mukhteshwar (TERI)3. Radio 
Namashkar, Konark, Orissa

4. Siwan Vani, Siwan, Bihar5. Gyan Taranga, Assam6. Radio Mattoli, Kerala7.

These CRS are empanelled with DAVP at the rate of Rs.1 per second.
