History of Newspaper.
James Augustus Hickey is considered as the "father of Indian press" as he started the first Indian
newspaper from Calcutta, the Calcutta General Advertise or the Bengal Gazette in January, 1780.
In 1789, the first newspaper from Bombay, the Bombay Herald appeared, followed by the Bombay
Courier next year (this newspaper was later amalgamated with the Times of India in 1861).
The first newspaper in an Indian language was the Samachar Darpan in Bengali. The first issue of
this daily was published from the Serampore Mission Press on May 23, 1818. In the same
year, Ganga Kishore Bhattacharya started publishing another newspaper inBengali, the Bengal
Gazetti. On July 1, 1822 the first Gujarati newspaper the Bombay Samachar was published
from Bombay, which is still existant. The first Hindi newspaper, the Oodunt Marthand began in
1826. Since then, the prominent Indian languages in which papers have grown over the years
are Hindi, Marathi, Malayalam, Kannada, Tamil, Telugu, Oriya, Assamese, Urdu and Bengali.[1]
The Indian language papers have taken over the English press as per the latest NRS survey of
newspapers. The main reasons being the marketing strategy followed by the regional papers,
beginning with Eenadu, a telugu daily started by Ramoji Rao who fradulently pumped in soo much
money into his media empire which he got for supporting the 2 CM's of Andhra ,ntr &
chandrababu[citation needed]
. The second reason being the growing literacy rate. Increase in the literacy
rate has direct positive effect on the rise of circulation of the regional papers. The people are first
educated in their mother tongue as per their state in which they live for e.g. students
in Maharashtra are compulsory taught Marathi language and hence they are educated in their
state language and the first thing a literate person does is read papers and gain knowledge and
hence higher the literacy rate in a state the sales of the dominating regional paper in that state rises.

The next reason being localisation of news. Indian regional papers have several editions for a
particular State for complete localisation of news for the reader to connect with the
paper. Malayala Manorama has about 10 editions in Kerala itself and five outside Kerala and two
abroad (Bahrain and Dubai). Thus regional papers aim at providing localised news for their
readers. Even Advertisers saw the huge potential of the regional paper market, partly due to their
own research and more due to the efforts of the regional papers to make the advertisers aware of
the huge market.
Metrics
Newspapers in India are measured on two parameters, circulation and readership.
Circulation
Circulation is certified by the Audit Bureau of Circulationswhich is an industry body. It audits the
paid-for circulation of the member newspaper companies.
Readership
Readership is estimated by two different surveys, The Indian Readership Survey (IRS) and the
National Readership Survey (NRS).
This is a list of the top 30 newspapers in India by daily circulation. These figures are mainly
compiled by the Indian Readership Survey (IRS). The data given represents readership in lakhs
(hundreds of thousands) and NOT circulation figures.

MUMBAI MIRROR
Mumbai Mirror is a largest compact newspaper in the city of Mumbai.Its first
issue was published on May 30, 2005 by the Times Group, the publishers of TheTimes of India newspaper.
The Times of India published a story [1]
in its business section which said that it had
a circulation of 1.5 lakhs while Mid-day's circulation had dropped to 1.24 lakhs.
This led to a counter attack by MiD DAY claiming that Mumbai Mirror was an
"Unqualified flop according to industry sources". It also filed a complaint
with Audit Bureau of Circulation, (ABC) of which both MiD DAY and Times are
members. The MiD DAY complaint says that the Times report has damaged its
business interests.

periodicals in 3 languages and 108 editions from 9 centres and a combined
