The Independent, one of the leading English dailies of Bangladesh, is a perfect example of how a single product can change an industry.

Launched on March 26, 1995, The Independent is the first four-colour, 16-page daily in Bangladesh, and also the first newspaper to use imported newsprint.

The newspaper introduced a 32-page weekend magazine for the first time in Bangladesh, and within two years.

The paper was also the first to introduce a web edition in 2010, re-branding itself with a stronger promise towards fast and authentic news coverage.

The Independent offers its readers a comprehensive coverage of the day’s events, in-depth news and analysis of current affairs, maintaining a completely unbiased point of view and neutrality. Journalists at The Independent are always ready to give readers a clear understanding of events and happenings with their background and implications. A group of experienced and energetic photojournalists keep their focus on every 'happening' to click and bring pictures that capture the true essence of daily occurrences.
