Bahar was established in May 2000.[1] The managing editor of the paper was Saeed Pourazizi who served as director general of the Presidential Media Office when Mohammad Khatami was in office.[2]
The daily has been banned for several times. It was banned on 9 August 2000.[2] Following ten-year ban it was relaunched in January 2010.[2] However, it was again closed down by the Press Supervisory Board on 19 April 2010 for "publishing items contrary to reality" and "creating doubt regarding major issues such as the elections."[2][3] It was later republished.[4] However, in October 2013 it was again closed down by Iran's state press watchdog due to the publication of an article which was regarded as undermining Islamic principles.[5][6] The article which was written by religious–nationalist activist Asghar Gharavi also questioned the legitimacy of the supreme leader.[7][8] It was the first publication banned in the country following the presidency of Hassan Rouhani.[5]
