Who We Are
Radio Madhuban 107.8 FM was started in 2011 with a small team of volunteers who shared a common vision to develop the villages in and around Abu. Licensed by the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, Government of India, Radio Madhuban is India’s first value-based community radio station.
Over the years, the team has designed several radio shows in local languages, keeping in mind the listeners’ interests and the station’s objective of spreading a meaningful message through broadcasting. Shows in Hindi, English, Gujarati, Marwari and a few tribal languages can be heard on Radio Madhuban 90.4 FM.
Our Mission
