Daily Jasarat (Urdu: روزنامہ جسارت) is an Urdu Daily newspaper in Pakistan. It is circulated all over Pakistan with offices in Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad.
History[edit]
Daily Jasarat was originally started in March 1970 from Multan, but soon moved its operations to Karachi and later shut down due to strikes by journalists.[1]
Daily Jasarat faced governmental censorship, particularly between 1972 and 1976 under Zulfikar Ali Bhutto's administration, resulting in multiple temporary shutdowns.[1] Internal conflicts arose during Muhammad Zia-ul-Haq's rule between the newspaper's editorial leadership and Jamaat-e-Islami, especially over the issue of supporting the military regime. These disputes led to significant shifts within the organization, including the departure of editor Maulana Salahuddin.[1]
Subsequent to these internal changes, Daily Jasarat has seen a decline in readership, a trend that has continued over several decades, exacerbated by the rise of competing publications such as Daily Ummat in the 1990s.[1]
Political stance[edit]
The newspaper reflects views of Jamaat-e-Islami Pakistan, a religious political party in Pakistan, while generally opposing left-wing and liberal ideologies.[2]
Magazines[edit]
Jasarat has two magazines:
- Sunday Magazine
- Weekly Friday Special Site
