Community Radio particularly is an effective means of communication in communities where most of the people are illiterate and can neither read nor write, those people can speak and understand their regional languages only.

Through community radio stations women’s got chance to get out of their home and also got chance to express what they feel & what are their problems which must be heard by community. Through this medium women’s also got opportunity to participate in community issues and also raise voice for women issues as well.
