National Broadcasting Day is observed on July 23 in India to commemorate the first-ever radio broadcast by All India Radio (then called the Indian Broadcasting Company) in 1927. It was initiated to recognize the vital role of radio in educating, informing, and entertaining the public across the nation.
Voices That Connect India
In India, National Broadcasting Day is celebrated through special radio programs, discussions, and documentaries aired by All India Radio (AIR) that highlight the history and impact of broadcasting. Media institutions and journalism schools also host seminars and exhibitions to honor the medium’s role in nation-building.
