A Day at Radio Manav Rachna:

Fun, Friends, and Fabulous RJs

 Friendship and Learning at RMR

An Unforgettable Media Shala Experience

At RMR, we embarked on an unforgettable journey filled with laughter and learning. Surrounded by friends, we explored the dynamics of radio broadcasting, gaining valuable knowledge and making memories with the RJs we met.

The journey started with excitement to school, from packing our bags at home! However, this didn't last long, and things took a turn after the announcement of assembling in the auditorium for attendance. Our class didn't realize that Headmistress Ma'am was standing right outside our classroom talking to other teachers. As soon as the announcement happened, the whole class howled with excitement to get down, and, of course, that is what should not happen, especially when we are on school premises. We were punished by not being allowed to go to RMR, but after long apologies, our punishment was canceled. With our hearts in our mouths, we were relieved, and thankfully, because of this, our class behaved very nicely the whole day as we knew we were on thin ice.

Later after attendance, we boarded the bus with confusion about where to sit. There were 50 kids and two teachers and only 1 bus to sit in. Thankfully, the transport manager agreed to take along a van as well which fit a teacher and 4 kids. Yet, I would surely say the ride was congested but fun as well talking and sharing treats! We clicked many selfies and pictures throughout, spilling chips and wrappers on the floor and boys shouting at the back! Ma'am divided us into into two groups, Media and Shala so that there is no congestion while exploring the area. The other group sat in a classroom in the university which was huge while the second was visiting the area. I was in the first group, Media.

After reaching Manav Rachna University, where RMR is located, I was astonished to see how big it was! There was a separate floor just for Media Shala! Talking about its beauty, can't be described in this blog. Firstly upon entering, we saw a small corridor with three rooms. RJ Diksha ma'am was our guide, well I underestimated the jobs of RJs but when she told us that she has taken interviews of famous personalities like two-time Olympic medalist, you know, Manu Bhakar. Everyone was speechless and in awe. Nobody believed her, so she went on to show us the interview video as proof!

You can see that too, by visiting the Radio Manav Rachna 107.8 account on Social Media Platforms and even on the app of RMR.

Later on, we went to the room where sound work happened. Then we went to another room where an RJ was ON AIR, which was very fun to hear. She spoke on the rules of crackers this year in the Faridabad area. It was so entertaining and informative to hear, which they call Infotainment. After getting to know how RJs speak, we divided ourselves into groups of four. We went to the podcasting station where we had to speak for about 30 seconds. I spoke great till the middle but fumbled at the end! Well then those who were done sat in the conference room where we read some comics secretly published by Media Shala on cyber crimes.

Well, I almost sat for the longest time because, as usual, I am always the first one to volunteer. Once our group, Media, was done, we clicked pictures as memories!

Our group then sat in the class, had lunch and fun, waiting for the second group to be over.

Coming to the last but the best part, the journey from the university back to school. This time, thankfully, got a great seat and sat alone, but after the journey, I was speechless my voice box had failed. As the whole way, we were singing songs loudly. Till then it was fine, but then we started saying our slogans, like the ones that politicians do. But ours was for our beloved educator, Palak Ma'am! 

"Hamari teacher kesi ho? Palak Ma'am jesi ho!" That smile on Ma'am's face truly made us more energetic.

Overall the trip was a ten-on-ten experience, and I wish to see myself on more trips ahead. Till then stay tuned and surely visit RMR's accounts.
