But one name that is making an impact in this field is an emerging daily namely ‘Kashmir Horizon’ in Jammu & Kashmir.

It’s indeed a proud moment for Kashmir Horizon for completing its twelve years of wonderful journey and its brave coverage. But this progress is not possible without its galaxy of contributors in the form of its dynamic chief editor Mr. Shafqat Bukhari, editors, vibrant reporters, Journalists, columnists, influencers and many more. Their passions are diverse and this pushes them to pour out themselves in their creative reporting and writings. The leading daily is available online and offline and has good social media presence. It is not easy to operate smoothly in the challenging zone of Jammu and Kashmir but this daily is trying to operate without fail. The paper has a high digital presence and that is the utmost need of the time. There is significant progress made but the leading daily has a massive potential to contribute in the society. It must provide more deep insights on businesses and opportunities for investments and flops in businesses. It must offer insights where and how to invest. There must be a page to focus on promoting Entrepreneurship in the Jammu and Kashmir. The leading daily must dedicate a page for youth highlighting vacancies for job employment and opportunities for higher studies and scholarship programmes. Congratulations to Kashmir Horizon Team for completing 12th years of better service to Jammu and Kashmir Society. I wish progress and more good contributions ahead…..
