The revised policy on community radio has not yet been issued. For 
starters, if you want a license to operate a community radio station 
under the old policy, you must be an approved educational 
institution, and your application (downloadable) must be endorsed 
either by your state education ministry or the central human 
resources ministry.

The local production centers do not need a broadcast license to 
produce radio programs or to join the movement. Please make a start 
by helping us swell the list of signatories to the petition.

As is the case with other sections of civil society, we do not have a 
formal organisation, nor do we feel that is a prerequisite to action. 
All we share is a belief that the world can be managed more 
equitably, and that we can make a difference by beginning with our 
own country.
