The Bombay Samachar

The Bombay Samachar is the oldest newspaper in India. In 1822, the Mumbai Samachar (Bombay Samachar) began publishing in Gujarati and English. It continues to be published today, under the same title, making it the oldest continuously published paper in India and one of the oldest in the world. The first 122 years of this paper are unavailable to researchers as filming began only in 1944. The paper was founded by a Parsi named Fardoonji Marzban. His descendant Pirojsha Jehangir Marzban (1876-1933) wrote under the pen name of "Pijam" and was known as "Mark Twain of the Parsis."
