Dhaka Courier

(An Independent Newsweekly)

The highest circulated English-language newsweekly of the country commanding a readership of over 100,000 in print and online at its website www.dhakacourier.net, Dhaka Courier has been in publication since 1984. It is also the longest running English news magazine in Bangladesh.

Dhaka Courier has been noted for its sharp focus on Bangladesh's political scenario and human rights issues. It has attracted leading South Asian columnists, including Kuldip Nayar, Khushwant Singh, Hassan Askari Rizvi, Syed Badrul Ahsan, Muhammad Zamir, Raana Haider and Achintya Sen, among others, to contribute to its content.

Throughout the years, Dhaka Courier has been most notable for fiercely holding on to its independence, reporting on various issues that affect the nation's conscience by casting an unbiased, but piercing eye that is not afraid to criticise practises that hold back Bangladesh's progress, nor extol the virtues that aid it.
