Daily Shahbaz is a historical newspaper which was firstly published in 1942 from Lahore. First owner of this historical newspaper was Noor Elahi Malik. Daily Shahbaz is one of the oldest newspapers of sub-continent. It was shifted to Peshawar from Lahore after the creation of Pakistan in 1947. This was the first newspaper of the province that had got teleprinter. This credit also goes to Daily Shahbaz that it was the first of the newspapers that started publishing Pashto articles that later on turned into a full pledge page which had a separate editor even. Then it was the historic day when in 1970 Khan Abdul Wali Khan purchased this newspaper from Engr. Saeed Khan who had failed to run it successfully. Thus Khan Abdul Wali Khan became the owner and Late Qalandar Momand it's first editor. Later on Shareef Farooq and Ajmal Khattak also carried their duties as editor in this newspaper. On 20th September, 1973 it stopped publishing because the then government did not like the tone of the newspaper but later on in 1978 it started again. After Qalandar Momand, Late Bashir Ahmad Bilour took charge of the newspaper. Awami National Party's current leadership once again started it on 31 July 2019 with the hope that it will become voice of voiceless.
