Community radio is rooted in the preservation of heritage and the discovery of hidden voices—a spirit that is the very essence of Radio Ninada. Operated under the Department of Journalism, this station serves as a vibrant sonic bridge between the college and the heart of coastal Karnataka. By broadcasting in local dialects and involving a diverse tapestry of folk artists and local residents, Radio Ninada transcends traditional broadcasting to become a true community forum.
Beyond daily news and information, the station curates a rich archive of programs dedicated to the cultural nuances of the coast. This serves as a vital digital record of our traditions while ensuring the rural population is actively engaged in mainstream media.
Broadcasting daily from 8:00 AM – 10:00 AM and 5:00 PM – 7:00 PM, the station is a laboratory for student creativity. Under the mentorship of expert faculty, students produce original content that harmonizes with local talent. Looking forward, Radio Ninada is expanding its impact with initiatives specifically designed to empower women and provide a platform for students from every discipline to share their unique perspectives and talents with the world.
