Introduction

During my long career with the All India Radio (Akashavani) -- the state controlled and only radio broadcasting service in India at the time -- I served in many great cities of India , met many great people of India and the experience enriched my life. In the following section I have documented several episodes of my days in All India Radio.

Many of these were published before (in other forms, platforms, or media), and many are documented just for this section on Kamat's Potpourri
