Mahatma Gandhi

on 12th November 1947

AROI is proud to announce its

First Official Radio event

AROI 2009 with conference theme as

“Vision 2010”

The first and only time Gandhiji visited the Broadcasting house, Delhi was on 12 November,1947, the Diwali Day. He arrived at the Broadcasting House accompanied by Rajkumari Amrit Kaur. A report on this event published in the issue of' 'The Indian Listener' of 22 February,1948, after Gandhiji's death, said: "A special studio was fitted with the 'takhposh' (low wooden settee) which was daily used by him for his prayer meeting addresses at Birla House, Appropriately, the prayer meeting atmosphere was created in the studio....... Gandhiji was at first shy of the radio and it was after much persuasion that he agreed to broadcast from the studios of AIR........ but the moment he reached the studio he owned this impersonal instrument as his own and said: "This is a miraculous power. I see 'shakti', the miraculous power of God".
