The CRS\u2019 initiative,\u00a0‘Shikshan Sarvansathi’<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0(Education for all) that won award under the Thematic Category was started in June 2020 to provide free education for students from 3rd to 10th grade, during the difficult time of COVID-19.<\/p>\n

Audio lectures were aired and made accessible to all the students who study in Zilla Parishad and Nashik Municipal schools. The programme was broadcast in various languages i.e. Hindi, English, Marathi, Sanskrit.<\/p>\n

Speaking to (PIB) about the functioning and the approach of the CRS, Station Director, Dr. Hari Vinayak Kulkarni said the programme received a very positive response. \u201cThese are the students who are trapped in poverty and cannot afford smart-phones for digital education.\u00a0\u2018Shikshan Sarvaansathi\u2019<\/em>\u00a0project was implemented with the help of 150 teachers who recorded lectures in our studio. The lectures were then aired according to the slots allocated to each subject. The programme received a huge response from the targeted community; approximately 50,000 – 60,000 students of municipal and ZP schools benefited\u201d.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Dr.Kulkarni further informed that the lectures were also shared with six community radios in Maharashtra, so that they too could broadcast through their radio channels. \u201cWe are glad that we could help students from all over Maharashtra as six community radios approached us to share this content to broadcast in their respective cities\u201d.<\/p>\n

Dr. Kulkarni also spoke about the initiatives being taken by teachers in distributing FM devices to students. \u201cA group of teachers in Igatpuri taluka of Nashik distributed 451 FM devices (inclusive of USB, Bluetooth, high-end speakers) to students to ensure that they don’t miss out on current syllabus. Teachers are also planning to upload it on YouTube, which can also be used when normal schooling begins.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe programmes will stay with the people forever\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dr. Kulkarni explained how the innovative model of sustainability adopted by the CRS has enabled the station to sustain itself in four key areas: financial, human, technical and content sustainability. Over a period of 10 years, the station has been able to develop a listenership base of approximately 3 lakh people, he said adding\u00a0\u00a0\u201cwe are very confident that positive steps will be taken and change will occur due to the issues we raise through our programs\u201d.<\/p>\n

Speaking about the various programs being broadcast through the CRS, he said how the program\u00a0‘Shahri Parasbaag’<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0(Kitchen Garden) helped increase awareness about environment conservation. \u201cThe complete process right from seed availability till planting the sapling is provided to our audience in this program,\u201d he said.\u00a0‘Mala Aavadlela Pustak’<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0(about favourite books to read) and\u00a0‘Jaaniv Samajktechi’<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0( focused on difficulties faced by senior citizens) are programs targeted to cover wide range of audience.<\/p>\n
