Qaumi Awaz (transl. voice of the nation) was an Urdu language newspaper published in India[1] by Associated Journals Limited, which was started by Jawaharlal Nehru in November 1937. It was shut down in 2008 because the company was incurring losses. Its sister publications are the National Herald newspaper in English and Navjivan in Hindi. On 21 January 2016 the AJL in its meeting in Lucknow decided to relaunch the three dailies.[2] In August 2017 Qaumi Awaz Digital Edition was launched.[3]
Zafar Agha was the last chief editor of Qaumi Awaz.[4][5]
