Amrita Bazar Patrika is one of the oldest daily newspapers in South Asia and the oldest in Bangladesh. Originally published in Bengali script, it evolved into an English format published from Kolkata and other locations such as Cuttack, Ranchi and Allahabad. The paper discontinued its publication in 1991 after 123 years of publication, although it was relaunched in Dhaka in 2006 where it is now published in Bengali once again.
