She further added,

“Today the burden of success is upon us at HUM Network, to contribute positively in other genres of electronic media. We are a nation that is only looked through a security lens and not for the loving, hospitable and diverse nation we are.”

Hence with the confidence of our shareholders and the backing from our team, we embark on another ambitious project today. If ever the world cried out for the length of view and breadth of perspective, surely it is now.  Today more than ever we need to bring our issues and concerns into the arena of constructive discussion and debate.  Our network has to play a role of inculcating our values in the news media. We owe it our nation and we owe it to our youth.”

The idea behind Hum News is to reduce the noise, it carries the responsibility of creating social impact for our community, for our youth and for our future. The driving motto behind every project at HUM Network is ‘think positive and think collective’ and HUM News will be no different.

Karachi falls prey to yet another bank robbery within a span of two days. Five robbers looted millions of rupees from a private bank in the Kharadar Cloth market. The gang of robbers fled with the money and weapons that belonged to the bank’s security guards.

It was reported that the burglars barged into the bank wearing helmets and masks so nobody would be able to identify them.
