A Major Step in Our Journey
Asha Media House is pleased to announce the acquisition of Bidire News, marking the establishment of our first operational unit in Moodabidire.
This milestone represents more than expansion — it reflects our commitment to strengthening hyperlocal journalism by building upon platforms that already serve their communities with dedication and credibility.
