The Central Government is making major strides to expand India’s media and creative industries by setting up 237 private FM radio stations in small towns across Telangana, establishing the Indian Institute of Creative Technologies, and launching Prasar Bharati’s new OTT platform.

Sanjay Jaju, Secretary of Information



and Broadcasting, revealed these plans at the India Game Developer Conference (IGDC) held on Wednesday at Hyderabad’s International Convention Centre.

The new FM radio stations, aimed at towns with populations under one lakh, will enhance local broadcasting and bring more entertainment and information to smaller communities.
