HamroPusta the Rise of Grassroots Digital Journalism in Nepal
Kathmandu — In an era when Nepal’s digital media landscape is rapidly expanding, HamroPusta.com has emerged as a grassroots Nepali online news platform focusing on community-based reporting and public-interest journalism.
Founded in 2018 under Pusta Media Pvt. Ltd., the platform was established by Ratna Sunuwar, a media practitioner from Sindhuli district. The organization operates with its head office located in Birendranagar–10, Surkhet, and was created with the aim of amplifying local voices often overlooked by mainstream outlets.
Publishing news primarily in the Nepali/english language, HamroPusta.com covers social issues, local governance, culture, education, development initiatives, and community affairs. Its editorial approach emphasizes accessibility and regional representation, particularly from areas outside the Kathmandu Valley.
Since its establishment, the platform has functioned as an independent digital news outlet, relying on digital distribution to reach readers across Nepal. Over time, it has expanded its presence through consistent coverage of civic issues and community-driven stories.
According to the organization, its editorial focus remains centered on public awareness and information dissemination rather than commercial media priorities. The portal has also served as a platform for local writers and contributors to highlight grassroots concerns and regional development topics.
As Nepal continues to transition toward digital journalism, platforms such as HamroPusta.com demonstrate the increasing role of independently run online media in shaping local discourse and preserving regional narratives.
