An Obervation Of All India Radio(AIR) Gangtok on 4835kHz

As per my observation ,All India Radio(AIR) Gangtok has been often heard  with strong noise (hum type) on its shortwave frequency of 4835kHz(morning & evening) now-a-days.And this morning i.e.On December 14th .(2018) around 0123utc on 4835kHz the transmission was noted with free from any hum type  noise and there was music(Ram Bhajan-devotional song in Hindi by a lady) was on air.
Here is the link to the audio recorded:

But later around 0250utc during my air check on AIR Gangtok on 4835kHz , there was strong noise(hum type) and it was difficult to copy the audio contents.Though noise sometime became slighlty less.I understand this is due to some faulty parts in the transmitter.And AIR Gangtok goes off the air for a few days or so and again back on air  with no noise but after a while again the same problem occurs.
Here is the link to the audio recorded around 0304utc of AIR Gangtok on 4835kHz :
