Description
Lokutu news brings together news articles from different sources and presents them in a simple, reader-focused format. Articles are ranked based on reader votes. The aim is to highlight the stories that readers consider important, rather than relying solely on popularity or engagement. All articles are fetched at 07 AM IST everyday and only the articles fetched on the same date are shown. The site is more similar to a newpaper, rather than real time news websites or applications.
