'Harijan' was yet to be published," Vivek Desai, managing trustee of Navajivan Trust, which holds the rights of publication of literature related to Mahatma Gandhi, said.
The nineteen volumes will be reprinted for the first time, he said, and will be officially inaugurated today.
The aim of reprinting and republishing 'Harijan', Mr Desai said, is to spread among people the messages and great articles written by Mahatma Gandhi, other freedom fighters fighting the cause of independence at that time.
The reprinted version of Young India, another weekly newspaper, was brought out some 20 years back, Mr Desai said.
Navajivan Trust was founded by Mahatma Gandhi along with Mohanlal Maganlal Bhatta and its deed of trust was registered on November 26, 1929.
