Bombay Chronicle

Bombay Chronicle was an English-language newspaper, published from Mumbai (then Bombay)[1], started in 1910 by Sir Pherozeshah Mehta (1845-1915), a prominent lawyer, who later became the president of the Indian National Congress in 1890,[2] and a member of the Bombay Legislative Council in 1893.[3]

It was an important Nationalist newspaper of its time, and an important chronicler of the political upheavals of a volatile pre-independent India. [4]

The newspaper closed down in 1959. [5]
