Some news item related to amateur radio in India as received  here..

The last date of Migration to digital via Saralsanchar website  of Government of India Ministry Of Communication & Department Of Telecommunication(DoT) i.e. https://saralsanchar.gov.in , for all amateur radio license holders who got their licenses by manual method prior to 2020, has been extended further upto June 15,2026. And it is to be noted by all Amateur  Station Operator Certificate(ASO) holders "that ASO license/certicate issued through Saral Sanchar portal of DoT will be preferred for grant of any associated  permissions, e.g. Special Call Sign, Amateur Society etc".

Latest Callsign Received From Guwahati & Much More:

Mr.Samiron Das of Jalukbari, Guwahati has got his Restricted Grade Amateur Radio callsign as VU33QB.

Congratulation  OB VU33QB!!!

Thanks OM VU22AR from Guwahati for sharing the information with us.

It is to be noted that from the end of  May,2025 onwards Amateur Radio Operators in India are being issued following  blocks of callsign types by Wireless Planning & Coordination(WPC)

For Restricted Garde, VU31 to VU39 series followed by two letters

For General Grade, VU21 to VU29 series followed by two letters

Thanks for the background information posted by OM VU2JOS,Hyderabad last year.

Please check OM OM VU2JOS's website for detail information on broadcasting in India(Akashvani etc) & amateur radio related information at

https://qsl.net/vu2jos/

OM VU2JOS wrote an interesting & informative article on Latest Amateur Radio Callsign Issued in India plus its background etc that appeared in Hamfest India 2025, Goa Magazine.

I think in Assam VU22AR OM Dr.Abhijit Rabha a retired Indian Forest Service Officer has created a history of sort as during mid 2025 he upgraded his Restricted grade Amateur Radio , VU3DUK and received the first callsign in Assam under the latest callsign blocks..viz. VU22AR.

Congraluation VU22AR ex VU3DUK !!!

But I am not sure about who got the first restricted grade callsign under the new policy.

NFAP 2025 Release:

The National Frequency Allocation Plan 2025(effective from December 30,2025) of Department Of Telecommunication(DOT) is in at
