Most read newspapers in Bangladesh

The titles below have the widest reach in Bangladesh, judged on print circulation and online readership together. Ordering reflects readership, not editorial preference, and the list is deliberately mixed: national Bengali dailies sit alongside the largest English title, the biggest online-only portals and the television newsrooms that most people actually get their breaking news from.

Circulation figures in Bangladesh are self-declared and audited inconsistently, so any ranking of this kind is an estimate. What is not in dispute is the top of it: Prothom Alo has led both print and online readership for well over a decade, and The Daily Star has been the leading English title since the early 1990s.

30 outlets are listed here. Each opens a profile with the paper’s background, its latest headlines where a feed is available, and a direct link to the publisher.
