Q. Hindoo patriot was started by?
Answer: Madhusudan Ray
Notes: The Hindu Patriot weekly newspaper, first published on January 6, 1853, under the patronage of one Madhusudhan Roy in association with the Girish Chandra Ghosh as Editor-in-Chief, changed ownership in June 1855. Haran Chandra Mukherjee, the older brother of Harish Chandra Mukherjee of Bawanipur became the first owner. The real buyer of the paper, however, was Harish Chandra who had to keep himself safe from the Military Auditor General who worked under him. The Hindu Patriot under Harish Chandra has played an important role in counteracting the pressure of indigo cultivators, especially during the post-coup protests. Common editorial articles against such violence in poor indigo raiyats have attracted public attention and sparked an international outcry from a large part of the educated Indians.
