Farm varsity initiative
In an effort to reach out to more farmers and members of the public, the Tamil Nadu Agricultural University (TNAU) is planning to start more community radio stations.
The university has written to the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting seeking permission to start six such stations at the Krishi Vigyan Kendras in Villupuram, Cuddalore, Tiiruvarur, Nagapattinam, Pudukottai and Virudhunagar districts.
The application was sent more than a month ago and the Ministry was considering the same, sources said.
Once sanctioned, the varsity would require Rs. 90 lakh to set up the stations. — Staff Reporter
