Brief History of DDDPC

Rooted in the historic land of undivided West Dinajpur, shaped by freedom struggles, the Tebhaga movement, and resistance to injustice, the Dakshin Dinajpur District Press Club embodies a legacy of courage and collective resolve. Established in 1977 amid geographical isolation and limited media access, the club united reporters committed to truth and public service. It became a vital platform for professional solidarity. After the 1992 bifurcation of West Dinajpur, the club adopted its present name while preserving its shared heritage. Despite years without a permanent home, perseverance led to the inauguration of its own building in 2008. Over time, the Press Club expanded into a cultural and social institution, organizing seminars, festivals, sports, social service, and professional training. As it approaches its Golden Jubilee in 2026, the club stands as a symbol of journalism, culture, unity, and service.
