Contribution of James Augustus Hickey
Contribution of James Augustus Hickey: The English East India Company’ began to import presses from the late 17th century in India. From 1780, ‘Bengal Gazette’ a weekly magazine was edited by James Augustus Hickey. It described itself as a commercial paper open to all, but influenced by none. So, it was private English enterprise in India. Hickey published a lot of advertisements, including those that related to the import and sale of slaves. He also published a lot of gossip about the Company’s senior officials in India.
The Governor-General Warren Hastings was angry due to this and he persecuted Hickey. Hastings encouraged Hickey for the publication of officially sanctioned newspaper that could counter the flow of information that damaged the image of the colonial government. By the end of the 18th century, a number of newspapers and journals began to publish. The first was the weekly ‘Bengal Gazette’, brought out by Gangadhar Bhattacharya in 1780, who was close to Raja Rammohun Roy.
