Encyclopedia : T : TH : THE : The Telegraph


This article concerns the Indian newspaper. See The Daily Telegraph (Australia) for the Australian publication, The Daily Telegraph for the British publication, and The Telegraph (Macon) for the publication in the U.S. state of Georgia.

The Telegraph is a Kolkata based broadsheet newspaper in English. It is owned by the Ananda Bazar Group of publications. It has published continuously since 7th July 1982 and created history by being the only broadsheet newspaper in post independent India to increase its market share by taking away readership from the established market leader (The Statesman). In its short life span of 23 years, it has become the largest circulated English daily in the eastern region published from Calcutta. It is considered by the Audit Bureau of Circulations, India , to be the fastest growing daily (in terms of circulation) in eastern India.

The Telegraph is also published from Guwahati (to cater to the entire northeast), Siliguri ( for North Bengal and Sikkim), Jamshedpur, and Ranchi (for Jharkhand). The Telegraph today offers, in addition to its extensive national, international, and business news a wide variety of reading material on special interests.

The internet edition is a part of the ongoing exercise of trying to reach more people interested in India and specifically the eastern part of the country.
