It was established in 1922 and published in Armenian as a daily and was an official organ of the Armenian Democratic Liberal Party (ADL) also commonly known as Ramgavar Party. It is considered as a continuation of the publication Tsayn Hayrenyats (in Armenian Ձայն Հայրենյաց meaning Voice of the Fatherland) established in 1899.
After publishing for decades as a daily, it was changed into a weekly and later on ceased publication.
Baikar is the sister publication to the English language Armenian Mirror-Spectator and published from the same premises.
