[[Hindi]] Journalism Day, held on May 30, is considered to be an extremely important day for Hindi journalism, since the first Hindi-language newspaper, [[Udant Martand]], was published on this day in 1826. Pandit Jugal Kishore Shukla started it as a weekly newspaper from Calcutta on 30 May 1826. He was the publisher and editor himself. For this reason, Pandit Jugal Kishore Shukla has a special place in the world of Hindi journalism. Before 1826, many newspapers throughout modern-day India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh (the British Raj) were being published in English, Persian, and Bangla, but not a single newspaper was published in Hindi. |

Keeping this in view, Jugal Kishore started the publication of 'Udant Martand'. This newspaper was published weekly, every Tuesday. At the time of Udant Martand's publishing, no one thought that Hindi-language journalism and media would grow to as huge of a size as it is today. |

Originally a resident of Kanpur, Pandit Jugal Kishore Shukla was fluent in Sanskrit, Persian, English and Bengali. He first worked as a Proceeding Reader in the Sadar Diwani Adalat in Kanpur and later went on to become a lawyer. He got permission from the Governor General on February 19, 1826, to publish Udant Martand. Due to a lack of knowledge of the Hindi language, especially in states like Bengal, there were rarely any returning readers. The cost of sending the newspaper out to Hindi belt states was quite high and all of Jugal Kishore's requests to the government asking for a concession in postal rates was denied by the colonial British government. The newspaper was forced to close after less than 2 years due to unforeseen financial constraints. |

Hindi media refers to media in the Hindi language and its dialects, across the Hindi belt in India, and elsewhere within the Hindi-speaking Indian diaspora.
Hindi media has a two hundred-year history, with the first newspaper published in the language, Udant Martand, going to press in 1826, and the first Hindi novel, Pariksha Guru, published in 1882.[1]
Newspapers
[edit]Hindi Journalism Day, held on May 30, is considered to be an extremely important day for Hindi journalism, since the first Hindi-language newspaper, Udant Martand, was published on this day in 1826. Pandit Jugal Kishore Shukla started it as a weekly newspaper from Calcutta on 30 May 1826. He was the publisher and editor himself. For this reason, Pandit Jugal Kishore Shukla has a special place in the world of Hindi journalism. Before 1826, many newspapers throughout modern-day India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh (the British Raj) were being published in English, Persian, and Bangla, but not a single newspaper was published in Hindi. Keeping this in view, Jugal Kishore started the publication of 'Udant Martand'. This newspaper was published weekly, every Tuesday. At the time of Udant Martand's publishing, no one thought that Hindi-language journalism and media would grow to as huge of a size as it is today.
Pandit Jugal Kishore Shukla was originally from Kanpur and wanted to give more importance to journalism despite being a lawyer. But at that time, the colonial British had made Calcutta their place of work, due to which it became a big challenge to talk about the rights of the Indians in India. Therefore, Jugal Kishore Shukla's initiative to publish the first Hindi-language newspaper focused at talking about the rights of native Indians is usually pegged as a bold experiment. Before the Hindi newspaper was published in the state of Bengal (now separated into West Bengal in India and Bangladesh), the newspaper was published in other languages.
The Hindi newspaper was also published from Bengal, the credit of which goes to Pandit Jugal Kishore Shukla. The publication of Udant Martand was started from No. 27 Amadtalla Gali, Kolutolla Mohalla, Calcutta. Originally a resident of Kanpur, Pandit Jugal Kishore Shukla was fluent in Sanskrit, Persian, English and Bengali. He first worked as a Proceeding Reader in the Sadar Diwani Adalat in Kanpur and later went on to become a lawyer. He got permission from the Governor General on February 19, 1826, to publish Udant Martand. Due to a lack of knowledge of the Hindi language, especially in states like Bengal, there were rarely any returning readers. The cost of sending the newspaper out to Hindi belt states was quite high and all of Jugal Kishore's requests to the government asking for a concession in postal rates was denied by the colonial British government. The newspaper was forced to close after less than 2 years due to unforeseen financial constraints.
The first Hindi-language newspaper published in India, Udant Martand (The Rising Sun), started on 30 May 1826.[2] This day is celebrated as "Hindi Journalism Day", or Hindi Patrakarita Diwas, as it marked the beginning of journalism in Hindi language.[3] India has a long history of printing. The first printing press was set up as early as in 1674 in Mumbai (Bombay). Calcutta General Advertiser, the first newspaper of India (also known as the Hicky's Bengal Gazette),[4] started in January 1780, and the first Hindi daily, Samachar Sudha Varshan, started in 1854 - three years before the Indian Rebellion of 1857.
Prabhat Khabar is a Hindi language newspaper published daily in Jharkhand, Bihar and West Bengal. The newspaper is circulated in several states in India, including Bihar, Jharkhand, West Bengal and some parts of Orissa.
