## Statesman Newspaper Description
The Statesman is one of India's oldest English newspapers. It was founded in Kolkata in 1875 and is directly descended from The Friend of India (founded 1818). The Englishman (founded 1821) was merged with The Statesman in 1934. The Delhi edition of The Statesman began publication in 1931. The Statesman Weekly is a compendium of news and views from the Kolkata and Delhi editions. Printed on airmail paper, it is popular with readers outside India. The Statesman (average weekday circulation approximately 180,000) is a leading English newspaper in West Bengal. The Sunday Statesman has a circulation of 230,000.
The Statesman has distinguished itself through objective coverage of events, its value as an honest purveyor of news emphasised at times of crisis such as the Bengal Famine of 1943 and the infamous internal Emergency of the mid-1970s. It is forthright in the expression of its views. Its pursuit of the truth has been relentless and often at considerable cost to itself, as when the government of Indira Gandhi, in gross abuse of power, attempted to suppress its voice and when the government of Rajiv Gandhi interfered with the grant of statutory clearances to its modernization plans unless the paper changed its editorial stance.
The Statesman prevailed, as the truth must prevail, and remains a favourite of readers in Kolkata and other parts of India.

The Statesman is now available on your iPhones & iPad.

## Statesman Newspaper Reviews in India

### **--- "App seems backdated"
Mostly no pics accompany the news article
Trending news is still showing news from 2017. And the same news over the last one month. Don’t know why
Can’t find any news on West Bengal or kolkata inspite of putting in my location and choice during set up
-- mn basumallick, 2025-05-15

### ***** "Love The Statesman from my childhood."
Grew up reading The Statesman. It’s an inseparable part of my life. Wonderful app. Helps me to read Dainik Statesman as an additional bonus. Thanks a ton for such a lovely and modern app.
-- snigdho4u, 2023-03-20

### **--- "No HD view after update"
Disappointed after recent update. HD feature isn’t available.
-- Sudeep Dular, 2021-04-27

### ***** "Mr"

IgetallthelatestNews

### ***** "Complaint"
Not being able to open articles on iPhones . Urgent need of a bug fix.
-- Snehit_99, 2019-10-27

### ***** "News & articles"
Excellent contents. Unbiased reporting. Timely coverage.
-- Dwari, 2019-04-11

### ***** "Nice but more if like BBC app then good"
It's a nice app but if get featured like BBC app then it's more effective
-- @RSam, 2019-01-31

### ****- "All round coverage of news"
Good coverage of news from all spectrum. We can differentiate from other newspapers where covering of Bollywood news has become a trend as if no other option is available for those newspapers ( specially TOI). Statesman has maintained the focus on news with a wider coverage which we expect from a good newspaper.
-- D Bhattacharjee, 2017-08-30

### ***** "Best newspaper."
Excellent newspaper.
With free subscription.
I can read my city, and my country while riding anywhere in the world.
-- Dr Shib, 2017-07-18
