VOICE is not founded by Srila PRabhupada. However, it is just what Srila Prabhupada wanted his followers to do in order to carry out the youth preaching around the world. It is very systematic and scientific approach to convey the message of BG and SB in a much simpler and scientific way. Every temple has different forums like ISKCON Youth Forum (IYF), Vishnavies Forum, Children preaching, etc... VOICE is one such group which is primarily intended to preach youth in College. Not only that there are VOICE for Girls, teenagers, corporate, etc...

It appears to me (and maybe a few others) that your intention is to somehow establish that VOICE is NOT BONAFIDE for "scientific preaching" and hence all the people in all the voices MUST join BI for "scientific preaching".
While it is a sacred mission to do scientific preaching as per the instructions of Srila Prabhupad, one needs to be careful from the attitude of exclusivity. "Scientific Preaching" is not a propriety activity limited to BI. Srila prabhupad did not tell all people interested in scientific preaching SHOULD join BI as it appears from your statements. While BI exclusively focuses on scientific preaching it should not be misunderstood that there can be no scientific preaching that can be carried out in any part of the planet other than BI.
Also this whole thread is focused on showing the limitations of "Voice" for scientific preaching. This is certainly not going to help anyone. If your intention is to encourage people to join BI that can be done independently without bringing voice into picture. Best is you open a thread talking about the activities/programs by BI.
This present thread is unlikely to be of any use for either voice or BI, in fact it can confuse people, which is not good for the mission of Srila prabhupad.

Please accept my humble obeisances.
The answer to this much depends on the interpretation of " authorised organisation for scientific preaching"
If we take the literal meaning - the answer is NO. I'll try to clarify this
Voice is an organized preaching program conducted by Iskcon temples. This program has a diversified set of audience which includes schools children, college students, working people, corporate officials etc. This program employs a very well designed scientific and systematic approach in spreading the knowledge of Krishna Consciousness to the well educated community in a gradual manner so that they are able to appreciate the principles of pure devotional serivice to the supreme personality of godhead Krishna as propagated by Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu.
The most important aspect is that scientific facts, logical formulations etc are employed to bring them to the point of practicing devotional service. So then aim is practice of devotional service.
Coming to the aspect of "Authorized Organisation for Scientific Preaching", this seems to be term which is more appropriate for BI. Because BI is an organisation specifically formed under the direct instruction of Srila Prabhupad for the specific purpose of preaching to the scientific/academic community involved in research and through them preach to the society. The approach used by BI can involve scientific theories in their full complexities, theories of different scientists etc.
So the different between VOICE and BI is that the immediate targeted audience and the approach.
Voice as mentioned is initiated by temples. Most important objective of Iskcon temples, Iskcon and Srila Prabhupad is to preach the science of Krishna Consciousness and inspire the fallen people of kaliyuga to practice the principles of devotional service as propagated by Lord Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu.
Voice in no manner should be considered to have infringed the responsibilities of BI. Nor should it be considered to have goals/practices/entities contrary to BI. Instead the right manner to look at this is that these are two parallel tracks having their unique approaches to serve Srila Prabhupad in his mission of spreading Krishna Consciousness as per his instructions.

i very much appreciate ur reply.thank you very much
please be me, in contact with you
Sure prabhu. I would consider it my good fortune to be in your association.
Just to add to the previous reply, Voice and BI can complement each other to have a synergistic effect on society.
Like for example the latest scientific research, experiments, findings etc conducted in the scientific community could be utilized by Voice for direct preaching. On the other hand the devotees who are inspired by voice program and have keen interest in scientific preaching could assist BI in its activities.
In fact I know some devotees from voice who have very strong interest in scientific preaching.

VOICE is an authorized youth wing of iskcon which scientifically and practically trains modern youth to adopt to iskcon lifestyle. That is why it is called a "vedic oasis". When the whole modern trend is giving so many allurements for modern youth to enjoy materialistic lifestyle, VOICE is training them in vedic lifestyle from scriptures.
Regarding your question --- "but my question is it founded by Srila Prabhupada and do prabhupada give responsibility to HG Radheshyam p to do scientific preaching"
Radheshyam Pr has all the blessings of his Guru Maharaj for Youth preaching. We can ourselves see the result and the quality of devotees who are trained in VOICES and their services to ISKCON. This success itself proves that Srila Prabhupada is blessing him fully in his service.
It is not that Prabhupada has to personally come and tell, The blessings are coming through parampara. Has Prabhupada has mentioned our names in any of his books and told us to chant 16 rounds..?!! But why are we chanting? Because that instruction is coming through parampara. Simple to understand. Acharya gives and order to preach KC to the whole world, it is our hands what method we implement, ultimately the motive is to please Prabhupada and bring more and more people to his Lotus feet.
