The Hindu Group Publishing Private Limited, which started in 1878 as a weekly magazine and became a daily publication in 1889, is one of the leading publishers in India. The Hindu has recently become the first Indian media organisation to open a representative office in Hong Kong. Correspondents of The Hindu, which is India's second-most widely read English-language daily with a readership of eight million across India, and its business daily Business Line, cover political and economic news out of Hong Kong and the Greater China region, providing perspectives that are particularly tailored for its growing readership in India and in the Indian diaspora around the world.
