The station officially was converted into a government organization in the year 1936 broadcasting its programs in the chief cities of the country. The same year, the Akashvani Mysore was established on the efforts made by the renowned professor of psychology in the Mysore University, Dr. M.V. Gopalaswamy. The radio fell under the supervision of the government in the year 1941 while the official name of the All India Radio was adopted in the year 1957. f="https://www.mapsofindia.com/mysore/media/"class="intnl_heading">Mysore Media
