BBC Hindi Radio Now Available on Mobile Phones Across the U.S.

BBC Hindi radio and audio news content is now available on demand on mobile phones in the United States of America, thanks to the BBC’s agreement with provider of mobile phone radio distribution in North America, AudioNowTM.

As part of this new service, Hindi-speakers in the US can access BBC Hindi audio in two formats. By calling 712.432.6586, they can listen to the BBC Hindi one-hour radio news programme which brings news, analysis and interviews on a range of issues, from current affairs to showbiz and sport. Plus, two-minute audio news bulletins in Hindi, updated twice a day, can be accessed by calling 712.432.6585.

While the service is free to callers in the US, users should check their mobile phone contracts for any additional charges.

Head of BBC Hindi, Amit Baruah, says: “This is an exciting development. More than one in 10 weekly users of our website, www.bbchindi.com, are from USA, and we are really glad that, thanks to this new service, Hindi-speaking audiences in the US can now use our audio content in a such convenient way.”

“Listeners can now access their favorite content on any mobile device which we have seen builds tremendous loyalty for broadcasters,” says Jen Friesen, AudioNow’s Director of Public Affairs. “BBC Hindi’s content will now be available to every mobile phone listener without downloads or the need to access data services. This continues our commitment to expand unique broadcasting content to North American mobile listeners from around the globe.”
