A History of Local English-Language Newspapers in KP Province, Pakistan

    This research study explores the history of local English-language newspapers of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The English-language press has played a significant role since the British rule in the province. It has acted as a representative of the region on an international level because the English language is an international means of communication. The researcher collected data through secondary data such as books and archives and also interviewed senior journalists of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province for data collection. The study discusses how English-language newspapers started in the province since the inception of the province, which used to be called North-West Frontier Province (NWFP).
