'Akashavani' was also used in the context of radio by M. V. Gopalaswami in 1936 after setting up India's first private radio station in his residence, "Vittal Vihar" (about two hundred yards from AIR's current Mysore radio station).[7] Akashvani was later given as All India Radio's on-air name in 1957; given its literal meaning in Sanskrit, it was believed to be a more than suitable name for a broadcaster. The name "Akashwani" was suggested by very famous poet Pandit Narendra Sharma.
Broadcasting began in June 1923 during the British Raj with programmes by the Bombay Presidency Radio Club and other radio clubs. According to an agreement on 23 July 1927, the private Indian Broadcasting Company Ltd (IBC) was authorized to operate two radio stations: the Mumbai station which began on 23 July 1927, and the Kolkata station which followed on 26 August 1927. The company went into liquidation on 1 March 1930. The government took over the broadcasting facilities and began the Indian State Broadcasting Service (ISBS) on 1 April 1930 on an experimental basis for two years, and permanently in May 1932 it then went on to become All India Radio on 8 June 1936.[2]
On 1 October 1939, the External Service began with a broadcast in Pashto. It was intended to counter radio propaganda from Germany directed at Afghanistan, Iran and Arab nations. 1939 also saw the opening of the Dhaka station of Eastern India, in what is now Bangladesh. This station catered and nurtured the pioneers of Bengali intellectuals. The foremost among them, Natyaguru Nurul Momen, became the trail-blazer of the talk-show in 1939. He wrote and directed the first modern radio-play for this station in 1942.
When India became independent in 1947, the AIR network had only six stations (Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai, Lucknow, and Tiruchirappalli). The three radio stations at Lahore, Peshawar and Dhaka remained in what became Pakistan after the division. The total number of radio sets in India at that time was about 275,000.
On 3 October 1957, the Vividh Bharati Service was launched, to compete with Radio Ceylon. Television broadcasting began in Delhi in 1959 as part of AIR, but was split off from the radio network as Doordarshan on 1 April 1976.[9] FM broadcasting began on 23 July 1977 in Chennai, and expanded during the 1990s.[10]
Deccan Radio (Nizam Radio 1932), the first radio station in Hyderabad State (now Hyderabad), went live on air on 3 February 1935. It was launched by Mir Osman Ali Khan the seventh Nizam of Hyderabad with a transmitting power of 200 Watts. On 1 April 1950, Deccan Radio was taken over by the Indian Government, and in 1956 it was merged with All India Radio (AIR). Since then, it has been known as AIR-Hyderabad (100 kW).[11]
The External Services Division of AIR is a link between India and rest of the world, especially in countries with Indian emigrants and Indian diaspora. It broadcasts the Indian point of view on matters of national and international importance, and demonstrates the Indian way of life through its programs. QSL card (which are sought-after by international radio hobbyists) are issued to radio hobbyists by AIR in New Delhi for reception reports of their broadcasts.
Direct-to-home (DTH) service is a satellite broadcast service in which a large number of radio channels are digitally beamed down over a territory from a high-power satellite. AIR broadcasts various national and regional stations available to listen on DD Free Dish. The DTH signals can be received directly at homes using a small-sized dish receiver unit containing a dish antenna installed on a building's rooftop or on a wall facing clear south and one indoors.[17] DTH service is offered on twenty one channels via Insat.
There is a long tradition of broadcasting documentary features on AIR. There is great interest in radio documentaries, particularly in countries like India, Iran, South Korea and Malaysia. The most prominent broadcaster of English Features was Melville de Mellow, and of Hindi Features, Shiv Sagar Mishra. This format has been revived by AIR producers across India because of its flexibility, its relative low cost to produce, its messaging potential and its creative potential.
The film industry was up in arms, of course. Filmfare magazine characterized Keskar as a devious man whose decision was a calculated blow at the reputation of the Indian film industry, as much as one aimed at ousting film music from the market" (August 1952 issue). In response, film producers who owned the rights to the songs decided to rescind the broadcast licences given to AIR. And, as Keskar anticipated, film music completely disappeared from radio within a mere three months. The void was filled by AIR broadcasting classical music.
Radio frequency transmitter and receiver products intended to be marketed in India that make use of the radio spectrum or connect to the public network are subject to a mandatory approval process issued by the Wireless Planning and Coordination (WPC). Moreover, an Authorized Indian Representative (AIR) must obtain the WPC Certificate of Conformity.
Private radio stations only emerged in the early 2000s, after a court challenge. The industry expanded in phases as legacy media companies got into the business one by one. But their output remains limited to music, entertainment, infotainment, weather, and traffic. Even sports coverage is restricted. In 2019, the year of the last general election, the government allowed private FM channels to carry news bulletins, but only those produced by All India Radio, which have to be aired in unaltered form.
She was with AIR at a time when the television was not such a major force to reckon with and radio had very high listenership. She was instrumental in launching and encouraging many speakers and musicians.
She was promoted as Asst. Station Director and served in that role in Chennai and Coimbatore and served as Station Director in Tirunelveli and Pondicherry. In Tirunelveli, she conceptualized and produced a weekly radio serial on Carnatic Music which had a successful run for one year.
In a satellite message on Wednesday, May 3, relayed from the policy division of the office of the director general, Akashvani, to all centres across the country, the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting (I&B) has decided to enforce a provision of the law by which the radio vertical of Prasar Bharati will now be called only Akashvani.
So now, per the message from headquarters, the new announcement pattern will be followed in other languages or dialects as well. So AIR may be broadcast in 179 tongues, but the radio vertical will still have a Hindi nomenclature.

He is the only one good in Tamil I guess. Actually I heard him in
English (in one ODI I guess) once. He was pretty good in English too.
Sad that he passed away.Does he come under late 60s and 70s category? I heard him in 80s only.Takeiteasy [remembering TV muted and radio tamil commentary on][snip]
Fredun DeVitre you mean? Remember him most from the 8:00pm sports
show on Bombay DDI - cant quite remember the name. BTW, nobody has really mentioned Sushil Doshi - by far the best
Hindi commentator of the 1980s. Jasdev Singh forsooth. I remember
getting hold of a video tape in the mid-90s of some silly India-SL
test match, ball-by-ball - the only saving grace (which thrilled
me to bits) was to be able to listen to Sushil Doshi once again,
this time commentating on TV for a little bit. And he used his
famous "kaliyan ka upyog" and "manovaigyanik dabav" and "balle
ka bahari kinara lete hue" too - I enjoyed it so much I ended
up watching it 3 or 4 times, just to listen to those words he used
to thrill us with on the radio thru the early 80s.
