In the age of social media, news websites are gaining momentum day by day, but NewsInsider24x7, a news website and sister media outlet of the Public Herald newspaper, is moving towards universality faster than others on social media.
While covering controversial political issues in Kashmir and moving towards other Indian states, NewsInsider24x7 is setting a record. Started in 2020, it currently has more than 7 lakh followers on Facebook, and the videos related to politics often go viral on it.
From an IT engineer to Editor-in-Chief

Jammu and Kashmir is full of versatile talents among the youth who change the trend and set new examples of success by using their zeal, intellect, and full determination in their lives, as we have learned from the story of Masood Malik, 27, an IT engineer student from a remote area of Bharath in Doda district, who established a well-reputed media house, both digital and print, of his own with its headquarters at Jammu and became an iconic trend setter for youth, became a job provider inspite of being a job seeker, and explored many possibilities to change the trend under the prevailing circumstances of unemployment scenario in the country.
Malik was very fond of being known as an information and technology engineer and serving the people in that capacity, but God has something different and special in store for him. Though he could not get a relevant job, without any let-up, he turned to journalism and concentrated on its pros and cons with full determination to become a journalist.
Malik switched over to social media as he was keenly interested in establishing a reputed media office of his own and working for people from all walks of life, but due to a lack of monetary resources at the initial stage, he could not do much and continued with his work, but the hope was alive somewhere in his heart.
Later on, he explored his engineering skills and switched over to the Facebook page on social media with full determination and began to work hard to highlight the basic problems of people through quality videos; for this purpose, he used the lobby of his home as his “studio” and made those videos go viral on Facebook. People began to like his efforts and hard work, and he gradually became recognised by the most renowned politicians, academicians, bureaucrats, doctors, and so on in a very short period of time due to his enthusiastic approach, and the list of his followers on social media began to swell with every passing moment.It is proudly and pertinently mentioned here that as of today, Malik has a well-established media house with its headquarters situated in the posh area of Channi Himmat in Jammu under the name and style of News Insider 24×7 digital media outlet, and the Public Herald newspaper, which has more than 7 lakh followers on social media, which is a classic boost to its infrastructure.
While the Chief Editor’s coveted post is held by Masood Malik himself, he has a worthy team of professional correspondents, subeditors, ground reporters, and technical staff, totaling 75 people, under his command, working day and night in every district of the union territory of Jammu and Kashmir to keep the people updated with happenings across the globe.
