Srinagar, Oct 12: The Kashmir News Service (KNS) group of publications on Sunday held its annual media workshop with correspondents from districts and Srinagar city, senior editors, and KNS journalists participating in the day-long programme. The workshop focused on reinforcing responsible journalism at a time when unverified content on social media is diluting public trust, said a KNS statement.

Among those who spoke at the event include Editor KNS, Shabir Malik, Maqsood Uri, former Editor of Shaherbeen, Shafat Malik, who began his career as a sub-editor wi
