Explanation:

The union and state governments have played a significant role in fostering the growth of community radio in India. They have implemented proactive policy initiatives to create a supportive environment for community radio stations.

The union government has introduced regulations that promote the growth of community radio. These include funding opportunities and relaxed policies for new stations. State governments, too, have supported community radio. They recognize it as a powerful tool for promoting regional languages and addressing local issues.

As a result, community radio stations have become increasingly popular in rural and underserved areas. They provide essential information and serve as platforms for local voices. People now have the opportunity to share their stories and connect with their communities through these stations.

These policy efforts, coupled with the growing demand for localized content, have contributed to the success of community radio in India. The medium has become an important tool for democratizing media access and empowering citizens. The sector is experiencing a revolution, offering new opportunities for engagement and inclusion.
