Indian Newspaper Day is observed every year on 29 January in India. This day marks the publication of India’s first newspaper, Hicky’s Bengal Gazette, which was started by James Augustus Hicky in 1780.
Newspapers play an important role in society by providing news, spreading awareness, and educating people about current events. They help citizens stay informed and encourage responsible thinking. Indian Newspaper Day reminds us of the power of print media and its contribution to democracy, freedom of expression, and social awareness.
This day is celebrated to honor journalists, editors, and all those involved in bringing news to the public and to encourage young readers to develop the habit of reading newspapers.
