(Redirected from Bombay Chronicle)
The 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] J. B. Petit had assisted Mehta in launching the newspaper and later went on to control the Indian Daily Mail.[4] From 1913 to 1919 it was edited by B. G. Horniman.[5] It was an important Nationalist newspaper of its time, and an important chronicler of the political upheavals of a volatile pre-independence India.[6] The newspaper closed down in 1959.[7]
