Age not a criterion for AIR announcers/radio jockeys who undergo voice modulation tests

NEW DELHI: All India Radio will not consider the age of its radio jockeys when conducting skill and voice modulation tests.

Noting that 'monotony is venom for any broadcaster', AIR Director General F Sheheryar told Radioandmusic.com that a broadcaster needs to recreate itself to remain popular.

While stressing that none of the radio jockeys were permanent employees and were on contract for presenting programmes for a maximum of six days a month, Sheheryar said that some of the presenters had gone to court in Kolkata but had lost the case.
