This is 107.4 FM and you are listening to Vidyavani, community radio…" is how Vidyavani, community radio from Savitribai Phule Pune university (SPPU) helps start the day for a security guard in Aundh. Keshav Kaka, the guard, loves to listen to the programmes on this frequency. "The programmes are fresh and informative and its better than listening to old Hindi songs on repeat," he said.

The community radio was launched in 2005 where the station air programmes cater to students. "The radio is very impactful and powerful. People can avail this facility to communicate with others in dealing with issues, finding solutions and also give a platform to showcase their skills.The radio is slowly improving its range of reaching out to many areas in Pune, by using omnidirectional anteenainstead of dipole anteena," said Mahesh Jagtap, producer,Vidyavani,community radio from SPPU.
