Solution
Akashvani broadcasts various kinds of programs, from entertainment to education. History plays a vital role in planning the broadcast of the programmes. A programme on national leaders needs to be supported by sufficient historical information. The programmes on the birth or anniversary of leaders are supported by the lectures given by historians. Maintaining accuracy is needed while broadcasting episodes of historical serials, which are very important. This is possible if one has a deep understanding of the history of the concerned period.
