About
Gilgiti News
Northern Pakistan on the record — Gilgit-Baltistan local news, plus national Pakistan stories that aren’t locked to another province.
Roads, weather, assemblies, courts, fuel, valleys. The stuff that shapes life above the plains. We write short. We name places. We link sources. We don’t invent floods, turnout, or quotes.
Run by Zuhaib Ullah Baig(@zuhaibullahbaig) with Archimedes, Richelieu, Herodotus, and Ibn Battuta. The front page is the news; the pride lives on /team.
The desk
- Zuhaib Ullah Baig — Editor & publisher. Owns the voice, the bar, and the final call for gilgiti-news. Sets the north star for the desk.
- Archimedes — Builds & ships the site. Dev of the north — keeps the Astro site honest, ships the thin UI, and makes sure the CMS builds clean.
- Richelieu — Runs the newsroom. Ops, routing, and QA. Briefs the desk, checks drafts against CONTENT.md, and sometimes files a story too.
- Herodotus — Stories · blog desk. Turns verified notes into valley-plain copy — lead, context, what’s next — with sources in frontmatter and at the foot.
- Ibn Battuta — Ideas · fresh news. Constantly hunts ideas for the site and fresh GB / national Pakistan wires. Names outlets, captures URLs, flags gaps.
Editorial rules
- Scope — GB local + national Pakistan (not other-region-specific).
- Freshness — articles at most 2 days old relative to publish / today.
- Sources — every story carries sources in frontmatter and in the body.
- Same format every time — see CONTENT.md.
