The Hindu is an English-language Indian daily newspaper. The Hindu was founded in Madras on 20 September 1878 as a weekly, by what was known then as the Triplicane Six consisting of 4 law students and 2 teachers. The Hindu was one of the many newspapers of the period established to protest against the discriminatory policies of the British government in India.
The paper became a tri-weekly in 1883 and an evening daily in 1889. A single copy of the newspaper was priced at four annas. The Hindu became, in 1995, the first Indian newspaper to offer an online edition. As of October 2014, it is printed at 17 locations across eight states. #besurprised #Historytoday #Chennai #Madras #History #TheHindu
