MEDIA LANDSCAPE IN SRINAGAR

The local newspaper market is structured around a clear bilingual split, heavily relying on both English-language broadsheets and a widely circulated Urdu press to reach readers across the Kashmir Valley. English readership is anchored by titles like Rising Kashmir, a prominent daily founded in 2008 by the late journalist Shujaat Bukhari, alongside Daily Kashmir Images. Local news consumption also remains deeply tied to Urdu-language publications, with established dailies such as Daily Aftab and Daily Roshni serving that demographic.
