The Ministry of Information & Broadcasting, in collaboration with the Indian Institute of Mass Communication, hosted the 8th National Community Radio Conference at WAVES 2025 in Mumbai.


Union Minister of State for Information & Broadcasting and Parliamentary Affairs, Dr. L. Murugan, honoured 12 outstanding community radio stations with the 10th National Community Radio Awards at the event.

Speaking on the occasion, Dr L. Murugan congratulated the winners and said that the national conference aims to strengthen the community media landscape in India through innovation, inclusiveness, and impact. The Union Minister of State said that Community Radio is a tool to reach out to citizens in all corners of the country. The Community Radios around the country are serving some or the other welfare purpose and supporting good causes, including the promotion of Indian tradition and culture, he added. The community radio stations are also taking PM Shri Narendra Modi’s vision and important development initiatives of the central government to all parts of the country. These stations are adding a new dimension of welfare activities for various communities and groups, like women and the tribal community, among others.

Speaking about the first edition of WAVES 2025, Dr. L. Murugan stated that new ideas will evolve from it and that the creative economy is a sunrise sector that will play a major role in the coming days.

Shri Sanjay Jaju, Secretary, Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, Shri Prithul Kumar Joint Secretary (Broadcasting) and MD, NFDC, and IIMC Vice Chancellor Dr. Anupama Bhatnagar were present amongst the dignitaries on the occasion.

The conference brought together representatives from more than 400 Community Radio (CR) Stations across the country on one platform to provide an opportunity for dialogue and collaboration. At present, there are 531 CR Stations across the country. The conference emphasised the seminal role of Community Radio in public communication and awareness generation, and also its potential in social development.
