Today, January 29th, is a momentous occasion for India – it’s Newspaper Day! This day marks the anniversary of the birth of the country’s first newspaper, Hicky’s Bengal Gazette, which rolled off the printing presses on this very date in 1780.
Since then, Indian newspapers have come a long way, evolving from humble beginnings to a vibrant and diverse media landscape. Today, we celebrate their immense contribution to our nation’s growth and development.
