The first newspaper

published in Hindi was the Uddand Martand' and the first Urdu newspaper was

jahe jahannuma. They commenced publication together but the Hindi newspaper

had to be discontinued after a year for financial reasons lack of government

support. The newspapers sought to raise the status of Hindi to a language, affect

change in society, inform its readership of international and national events, and

sensitise government to the problems of the citizens.
