Lokmanya Tilak's roar, "Kesari' going strong at 140 years
Pune, Jan 4 Dreaded for its lionish roar once, "Kesari", the newspaper founded by the legendary Lokmanya Bal Gangadhar Tilak completed 140 years on Monday after changing several 'avatars' in its long media journey.
Starting from a humble Marathi tabloid on January 4, 1881, it transformed into a biweekly, triweekly, daily and finally an e-paper, continuing to serve its dedicated readership in Marathi.
In fact, it had a two-day older English sibling 'Mahratta', a periodical which also celebrated it 140 years on Saturday after experiencing many depths and peaks, and both precede the founding of the Indian National Congress in 1885.
"Kesari"
