Sona FM: A companion of the hill people

 

What can a community radio do? Can you believe that it is providing road facilities, medical assistance and essential needs to the people living in the hills? Salem Sona FM is the only community media for the people of 36 villages located on the Yercaud hills. This radio station broadcasts for 16 hours a day and has a huge audience all over Salem district. I recently got the opportunity to attend the third anniversary of the radio station. 

The program was beautifully presented by Ilakkiya. Project Director Mr. Subramaniam coordinated the program very well. In his speech, the chairman of the Valliyappa Foundation, Mr. C. Valliyappa, directly listened to the needs of the audience and asked them to take notes from the program producers. In addition, he directly introduced all the announcers and program producers to the audience

 I am very happy that the Chairman is in close contact with Gyanpeeth award winner Akhilan, a former employee of Akashvani. It is noteworthy that this is one of the few community radio stations that is successfully operating in Tamil Nadu.
