Official statement of Radioudaan pertaining to the discussion on latest incident in Nab Delhi Dear all, Greetings from Radio Udaan We, radioudaan, a disability community radio work only and only for community and talk about improving the conditions of brothers and sisters in the community. Recently we had conducted a discussion on the molestation case which took place in NAB, Delhi. Since there are so many rumors which r floating around and in this regard we have come up with our official statement to clear the air. We have got many feedback with respect to the discussion we had last evening and many r very happy to see us raise this topic as best as we could. On the other hand also we got many complaints from many organizations who r very disturbed with our reporting. Also a few individuals also complained on the coverage. Radio Udaan is a very responsible station and we take full responsibility on our coverage. We quote Mr. Prashant Ranjan Verma who has written the following statement on a social platform., (The incident reported in the newspapers and by Radio Udaan is under the POCSO act where people are forbidden to reveal anything which could lead to the Identity of the victims. The way people discuss things on the AI list, I am afraid it could invite legal action by the police. So, please do not allow this to go through. I am of course available to answer questions on phone or personal email. Yesterday Radio Udaan has done a very disturbing show on this already and they got lot of complains already. Thanks, Prashant Verma)
We would also like to clarify that we take full responsibility and are ready to face any legal action with regards to our show. As far as the statement of Mr. Verma that Radio Udaan has done a very disturbing show and we have got a lot of complaints for that we would like to clarify that we have got just one complaint which was more of a threatening call rather than being a complaint. In India we have right to speak so we cannot stop anyone from presenting their views and as per the revealing of identity is concerned we have already removed the objectionable stuff from the show and we have posted a statement on you tube also. This statement is given by our general secretary Mr. Danish mahajan and one can easily listen to it by typing radioudaan statement on latest discussion on incident in NAB delhi. Whenever in future we will do such a show organizations will get disturbed with our coverage and this is bound to happen as such incidents are very disturbing in nature but we will continue to do such shows and make people disturbed. We are very happy that our reporting and coverage make some people get disturbed and we also hope that bringing such incidents to light will make a better environment for us all in the society. We request all the organizations that instead of stopping us they must improve the environment in their circle That would help us to cover positive news and make the society aware of some new improvements in the community. Whatever the consequences may be we will work for our community and will keep on talking about all the positives and negatives openly… Here are the you tube links of show of discussion and official statement by radio udaan. https://youtu.be/3P4s2W0E4vI https://youtu.be/cpcXzAp-9tY Thank you Radio udaan team!!!
