Nepal Bhasa Patrika: The First Daily Newspaper in the Newar Language
Nepal Bhasa Patrika (नेपाल भाषा पत्रिका), meaning “Nepal Language Newspaper,” holds the distinction of being the first daily newspaper published in Nepal Bhasa (Newar language). Launched on 28 September 1955 in Kathmandu, it served as a vital platform for linguistic rights, cultural preservation, and political expression for nearly three decades until its cessation in 1983.
