Ramesh Chandra Agarwal, the man who is credited with turning Dainik Bhaskar from a little known newspaper into the fourth-largest circulated daily in the world, is no more.
After a highly fruitful career that saw the creation of one of the most successful media houses in the country, the media baron breathed his last on the morning of April 12, 2017, following a cardiac arrest. He was 73.
Ramesh Chandra Agarwal was born on November 30, 1944, in the Jhansi district of Uttar Pradesh, to Seth Dwarka Prasad Agarwal and Kasturi Devi Agarwal. Dwarka Prasad owned a modest printing press in Jhansi, where he printed notebooks, and from a very early age, his son Ramesh Chandra Agarwal took interest in the business. Apart from printing notebooks, Dwarka Prasad also published a newspaper, though this was merely a parallel business that was run from social considerations rather than commercial. It, however, started fetching good profits and this had the Agarwals gradually shift focus to their media business, until it became their mainstay.
