Panjab Radio

Panjab Radio operates as a commercial station based in Hayes, West London, broadcasting across the UK via 558 AM, DAB, Sky Channel 0125, and online. Founded in 2000 by Surjit Singh Ghuman MBE, the platform caters to the British Panjabi community with programming delivered mostly in the Panjabi language.

The station mixes spiritual broadcasts, news, and targeted community discussions. Founder Surjit Singh Ghuman hosts the morning show, followed by daytime content from Shabo Boparai and drive-time programming with Jaz Sidhu. Early mornings and late evenings feature religious broadcasts, including Sri Sukhmani Sahib, Gurbani recitations, and live Kirtan.

Music choices combine folk and Bhangra classics with modern releases. Playlists run from established artists like Gurdas Maan to contemporary performers such as Diljit Dosanjh alongside classic hits by the late Sidhu Moose Wala.

RAJAR data for Q2 2026 shows a weekly audience of 71,000 listeners. While broader outlets like BBC Asian Network or Sunrise Radio cover a wider South Asian demographic, Panjab Radio limits its scope to Panjabi speakers. Shows frequently cover specific topics, including UK immigration guidance and health advice.
