James Augustus Hicky, also referred to as "father of Indian press", a British citizen known for introducing first newspaper during the reign, and hence India's press foundation was originally led by the British administration despite the self-censorship by the imperialism.[3][4] Hicky wrote articles independently on corruption and other scandals without naming the officials.
