About

Nispaksha

Read full description

Nispaksha shows you every side of every story. Most news apps pick one outlet and call it the truth. Nispaksha pulls Nepal's biggest stories from 19+ publishers and shows you the whole picture โ€” every outlet, every angle, side by side. You see who emphasized what. You see what got left out. You decide. WHY NISPAKSHA โ–ธ Coverage View โ€” every story gets a cluster page with all the publishers covering it, in one place. Tap a headline, see the full coverage strip. โ–ธ Daily Brief โ€” every morning at 6:30 NPT, an AI-curated summary of yesterday's top stories. Audio in Nepali. โ–ธ Breaking Coverage โ€” push notifications fire only when multiple outlets are covering the same story. No single-publisher noise. โ–ธ Bullion โ€” fine gold and silver per tola, updated daily. Share rates with one tap. โ–ธ Weather, NEPSE, Forex โ€” the basics, where you'd expect them. โ–ธ Festival ready โ€” Dashain, Tihar, Chhath: tuned for the Nepali calendar. WHO IT'S FOR Nepalis at home who want to know what actually happened today โ€” not what one outlet wants you to think happened. Nepalis abroad who can't read twelve sites every morning but still want to follow home properly. Anyone tired of outrage feeds and clickbait. Nispaksha doesn't track you, doesn't profile you, doesn't run ads designed to make you angry. WHAT WE DON'T DO ร— We don't pick a political side. ร— We don't sell your reading data. ร— We don't run intrusive ads. (Sponsored partner placements only, clearly labelled.) ร— We don't write our own news โ€” we surface what Nepal's working press already published. FOLLOWING & PERSONALIZATION Follow publishers, categories, or specific stories. Your "For You" feed adjusts. Sign in with Apple or Google to sync follows across devices โ€” or browse anonymously, no account required. CONTENT Stories appear in their original language โ€” Nepali or English โ€” straight from the source. Coverage spans national, politics, world, business, sports, technology, entertainment, opinion, society, culture, health, education, and travel.
