Akashvani Obra broadcasts from Obra, an industrial town in Uttar Pradesh’s Sonbhadra district built around the Obra Thermal Power Station and a hydroelectric dam on the Rihand River, both dating back to the town’s mid-20th century development as an energy hub. Commissioned in 1993 as part of AIR’s regional service expansion in Uttar Pradesh, the station operates on 102.7 FM with a 6 kW transmitter, carrying news, talk shows, and regional music in Hindi, English, and Bhojpuri — a language mix that reflects Sonbhadra’s position near the borders of Bihar and Jharkhand’s Bhojpuri-speaking belt. Set amid the hilly, plateau terrain of the Vindhyan highlands, Obra’s station plays a genuinely important connective role for a district that’s more industrial and rural than urban, linking power-plant workers, farming communities, and nearby villages to both local and national news. For listeners across Obra and the wider Sonbhadra district, Akashvani offers a dependable mix of information and Hindi-Bhojpuri music suited to this energy-producing corner of eastern Uttar Pradesh.
