Mysuru: There was a time when people depended on the Kannada news broadcast by All India Radio. They would switch on the radio during the news broadcast time and keenly listen to it. However, with the advent of internet, the number of listeners of Kannada news has gone down, said Akashvani retired news reader A. R. Ranga Rao.
He was speaking after receiving the Agaram Rangaiah award at an event of Madhyama Mitra Sneha Milana, organised by Vishwa Samvada Kendra as part of Aadhya Patrakarta Deva Rishi Narada Jayanthi at Madhava Krupa on JLB Road, here yesterday.
