Parhlo is a daily digital newspaper published in both English and Urdu languages. News articles on current affairs on Parhlo are published from a number of different cities on a daily basis simultaneously. Parhlo.com takes an unorthodox outlook on traditional journalism in Pakistan, encouraging citizen journalism via crowd-sourced content.[1][2]
History[edit]
Parhlo was a test-project for creating a youth-based publishing brand in Pakistan. It was founded by Yasir Shirazi, Faiza Zafar, and Irfan Burney, with the later addition of Shoaib Shamsi in 2014. Parhlo.com was conceptualised by Yasir in response to a percieved lack of space for young writers in the publishing industry.[3]
Content[edit]
Apart from content submitted to its domain, Parhlo produces its own content on social issues, politics, entertainment, sports, business, technology, food, and many other categories.[4][5]
Since its founding in 2014, Parhlo has grown in visibility within traditional and social media in Pakistan. Exclusive stories featured on Parhlo have been further shared by other publishing houses such as Dawn Aurora, Daily Pakistan, Siasat.pk, ARY News, and many others.[1][3][4]
