'Timeless lifeline': PM Modi greets people on World Radio Day
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday greeted people on the World Radio Day, describing the medium as a “timeless lifeline” that connects people worldwide.
In a post on X, he said, “Happy World Radio Day! Radio has been a timeless lifeline for several people, informing, inspiring and connecting people. From news and culture to music and storytelling, it is a powerful medium that celebrates creativity.”
Complimenting all those associated with the world of radio, he urged people to share their ideas and inputs for this month's 'Mann Ki Baat', scheduled for February 23.
World Radio Day, declared by UNESCO Member States in 2011 and later adopted by the United Nations General Assembly in 2012, is celebrated every year on February 13 to recognize radio’s vital role in providing information, fostering culture, and facilitating public dialogue.
