Sudharma (Sanskrit: सुधर्मा) is the daily newspaper printed in Sanskrit in India.[1] The paper is published from the city of Mysore in the Indian state of Karnataka.[2] Established in 1970, the paper is mainly distributed via mail, a method that its founder resorted to when news vendors refused to stock his paper.

As of 2018, the newspaper was struggling to survive due to a paucity of funds.[3]
