The Daily Naya Diganta[1] (lit. 'Daily New Horizons') is a Bengali daily newspaper published in Bangladesh since 2004.[2]
History
[edit | edit source]It is part of Diganta Media Corporation, which was owned by Mir Quasem Ali, politician of the Jamaat-e-Islami.[3] The television channel, Diganta TV, is a sister concern of the newspaper.[4] The television was launched in August 2008.[5] Alamgir Mohiuddin is the editor of Naya Diganta.[6]
A Daily Naya Diganta reporter was cautioned for misrepresenting a statement of prosecution witness in the International Crimes Tribunal in January 2012.[7] On 17 June 2012, the chairman of the holding company, Mir Quasem Ali, was arrested by Rapid Action Battalion on charges of war crimes during the 1971 war.[3][8] He was convicted and sentenced to death by the International Crimes Tribunal.[9] Bangladesh Information Minister Hasanul Haq Inu accused the newspaper of carrying out "propaganda" against the International Crimes Tribunal.
A Dhaka high court indicated the editor of Naya Diganta for libel regarding the case of defaming Muhammad[10] and another case was filled for defaming Sheikh Mujibur Rahman against Naya Diganta editor.[11] Dhaka Union of Journalists (DUJ) expelled its units at The Daily Sangram, Naya Diganta, Weekly Sonar Bangla and Diganta Television as those media houses are run by Jamaat-e-Islami and Islami Chhatra Shibir.[12]
