The present study reveals that radio as a mode of mass communication is an essential catalyst in bringing socio-cultural transformation in Indian rural setting which refers to cultural activities such as religious life (worship of God and Goddesses), ritual of life cycle, festivals and fairs, religion in crisis situations (worship of deities of specific diseases such a Shitala Matas, Ojha etc.) on account of its listening programmes.
