Nada volunteers Alexander Hitch from US and Corinna from Germany visited Radio club Balbhawan on 10th Sept.

Dear Mr.Vatsyayan

Thank you again for introducing us to the Radio children yesterday. It was, for both of us, one of best experiences we've had in India……. Corinna expressed interest in visiting the children again when she is back in Delhi, which should be quite often considering she is not leaving until late October.

Thank you again,
Alexander Hitch

World Mental Health Day– October 10, 2025 Recently, the leadership of Nada India Foundation met actor Amol Parashar in Delhi. We appreciated his courage in taking on socially responsive roles in web series such as Gram Chikitsalay and the live performance Besharam Aadmi .
