My Mail to Radio One RJ Prithvi

Dear Prithvi,

I am a regular listener of your show (I guess I have no other choice as far as hindi music is concerned). I would request you to evaluate a change in the format of the shows mentioned above as they seem to be demeaning people and berating them publically for things that they have not done.

You also use a false identity to achieve the end result - a flustered, humiliated and shocked individual, stammering on air, thanking his stars that he got a call from the biggest public personality this side of the Tropic of Cancer.

By airing these programs you are in violation of the enduring principles of broadcasting that all programming should not mislead, cause offence, or lead to harm, particularly to the vulnerable. Would request you to use the Self-Regulation Guidelines for the Broadcasting Sector (file attached) to make the changes that you feel will make your program endearing not offensive to its audience. Please refer to Page 5 - Section B: Principles - bullet point 11 - subpoint a of the attached file for more information.

Wishing you all the luck in transforming your programs and increasing your connect with the audience in Bangalore!

Warm Regards

Sachin Gaur
