The Indian Army has launched the community radio station “Sangam 88.8” in Rajouri’s Doongi block, aiming to strengthen local culture while expanding opportunities for border-area youth. The station shares crucial information and government schemes and also gives children a platform to showcase talents—an outlet created to address the limited prospects in remote regions.
Under PMGSY, a 13-kilometer road project worth Rs 29 crore is being built in Rajouri’s Doongi belt to connect remote border panchayats and link three key blocks. Locals expect faster travel, better access to healthcare and education, and easier movement of goods. The work aims to meet long-standing demands while strengthening local development and livelihoods.
