Addressing media reports that nearly 100 casual RJs aged above the age of 35 years will be given the sack by All India Radio (AIR), Prasar Bharati has announced that no radio jockey will be fired. Rather, they will have to undergo a voice modulation test to "prove their versatility in front of the mic".

Following reports that appeared on Saturday, August 9, 2014 in a section of the press, Jawhar Sircar, CEO, Prasar Bharati had tweeted that AIR Director General Fayyaz Sheheryar has been asked not to fire anyone and that the policy is under review.
