Ishpata News Network Pvt Ltd (INN) is a part of the Ishpata Group of Companies, founded by Luke Rehmat & Gul Nazar in 2016. The media house was established with the aim of providing a platform for indigenous voices, particularly those of the Kalasha community in Pakistan. INN has grown from a regional news outlet into a credible source of information, focusing on community-centered journalism. Its inception was driven by the need to amplify the voices of marginalized groups, promote indigenous culture, and address social, economic, and political issues from the perspective of those who are often overlooked by mainstream media.

INN initially started as an online platform with a presence on social media and a website, providing news, stories, and documentaries about the Kalasha people and other underrepresented communities. The network has plans to expand its operations at both district and provincial levels, aiming to reach a wider audience and provide a balanced, grassroots-level view of the issues affecting indigenous populations.
