Indian Newspaper Day

Indian Newspaper Day, observed on 29 January, marks the birth of Indian journalism with the launch of Hicky’s Bengal Gazette in 1780. This historic publication introduced the power of the printed word to India and laid the foundation for a free and fearless press. From exposing truths to shaping public opinion, newspapers have played a crucial role in strengthening democracy and giving voice to the people. Even in today’s digital era, Indian Newspaper Day reminds us of the enduring importance of ethical reporting, press freedom, and responsible journalism.
