Service Society (WSSS), Mananthvady, Kerala, for setting up, maintaining and operating
a community radio station (CRS).

CRS is expected to be operational within three months, as per the agreement. WSSS
was established in 1974 to conduct, manage, promote the social welfare centre,
technical schools and hospitals to give practical and technical knowledge to people
