<strong>Abstract</strong><br>
Mathematics education is  an area of concern in India as many students do not find mathematics interesting 
whereas  many  develop  a  psychological  phobia  towards  the  subject.  Many  students  drop  mathematics  after  grade  X  as 
mathematics is optional after grade X. Adults who had left mathematics after grade X continue to live with the same phobia 
for mathematics. The paper presents the highlights of a unique efforts introduced by students of  Master of Mathematics 
Education program at Cluster Innovation Centre, University of Delhi. Students of semester I. They   introduced an on-line 
community  radio  series,  titled,  “Popularizing  mathematics  among  masses”  through  the  most  humble  medium  of 
communication, namely, community radio. It was an outreach program to make mathematics more eloquentand interesting for 
common people through the Community Radio Station. The paper also reflects on the need of more such programs in a diverse 
and developing country like India where multiple uses of resources through multi-media technology is the need of the hour
