PANI broadcasts Christian teaching into persecution-affected South Asia

Trans World Radio reports that its PANI service broadcasts Christian programming in Urdu, Punjabi, Pashto, Dari, Hazaragi, and other languages into Pakistan, Afghanistan, and North India.

TWR's November 2 report says the PANI transmitter has operated since 2014, serving Pakistan, Afghanistan, and North India with Christian teaching in multiple regional languages. It describes radio and digital access as safer options for people who may face social or legal pressure for openly seeking Christian material.

The organization says the programming includes Bible teaching, discipleship, and responses to listeners. The report does not provide a verified current listener total, conversion count, or independently measured outcome.

The ministry's description of risk is consistent with its work among small Christian minorities, but this article does not use advocacy rankings or infer that every listener faces the same level of persecution.
