Indus.News Originals

Welcome to Indus News, an upcoming news website featuring aggregated Pakistan news cycle as well as original content such as features, opinions, blogs, and editorials. I recently acquired the indus.news domain name listed for sale as a premium domain name on the marketplace. Needless to say, this website is not affiliated in anyway with the previous owners or the now defunct news channel of the same name.

Who is the editor? My name is Muhammad Farhan (aka Farhan Janjua) and I’m a former journalist and editor. My journalistic experiences include being the Regional Editor Middle East & Af-Pak at the Bertelsmann Stiftung’s project FutureChallenges.org, Author at GlobalVoices.org, Digital Editor at Dunya News Pakistan and Daily Times Pakistan. I have a masters degree in Media & Communication Studies, a masters in Political Science, a BSc. (Open) in International Relations and Sociology, and am currently pursuing BA Social Work. I left Pakistan in 2019, attempted to find work as a journalist/editor in Germany, had some success as a freelancer but ultimately decided to change career. I currently work as a social worker in Germany with vulnerable groups such as queer refugees and refugees with disabilities. Disclaimer: I’m a member of the Social Democrats Party (SPD) in Germany and have left-leaning, social democratic, liberal, progressive, and egalitarian political views and the same might also be reflected in editorial line on this website.
