Editorial & Corrections Policy

Our Commitment to Accuracy, Transparency & Responsible Journalism

📰 Our Editorial Commitment

Pratibha Times 24 News is committed to providing accurate, timely, transparent, responsible, and public-interest journalism. Our editorial team works to present news and information in a clear and understandable manner while respecting journalistic ethics, fairness, privacy, and the dignity of individuals.

🏛 Editorial Independence

Our editorial decisions are made independently by our editorial team. News coverage, headlines, photographs, videos, and other editorial material are selected on the basis of newsworthiness, public interest, relevance, and available verified information.

Advertising, sponsorship, promotional activities, business relationships, or other commercial interests should not determine the editorial judgment of our newsroom. Where applicable, promotional or sponsored material will be clearly distinguished from independent editorial content.

✅ Our News Standards

🔎 Accuracy
We make reasonable efforts to verify facts and present information accurately before publication.
⚖️ Fairness
We aim to present relevant perspectives fairly and avoid intentionally misleading or one-sided reporting.
🧾 Transparency
We identify sources, authors, dates, and relevant context wherever reasonably possible.
🛡️ Responsibility
We take care to avoid unnecessary harm, defamatory claims, misinformation, and sensational presentation.
👥 Public Interest
We prioritize information that is relevant and useful to our readers and the wider public.
🔐 Privacy
We respect personal privacy and exercise care when publishing information involving private individuals.

🔎 Sources & Verification

Our journalists and contributors may obtain information through on-ground reporting, interviews, official statements, government departments, public records, press releases, documents, eyewitness accounts, and other credible sources.

Wherever practical, important claims are cross-checked before publication. Information that is developing, unconfirmed, or based on preliminary reports may be presented with appropriate attribution and context.

We do not intentionally present rumours, speculation, or unverified social-media claims as established facts.

📰 Headlines, Images & Presentation

Headlines are intended to accurately represent the substance of an article. We aim to avoid deliberately misleading, deceptive, or excessively sensational headlines.

Images, videos, graphics, and other visual material should be used responsibly and, where appropriate, accompanied by suitable attribution or captions. Visual presentation should not intentionally create a false impression about the reported event.

🤖 Use of Artificial Intelligence

Artificial intelligence and digital tools may be used in certain editorial workflows, including research assistance, language improvement, transcription, translation, formatting, or content-support tasks.

AI-generated or AI-assisted material is not treated as a substitute for editorial responsibility. Published news remains subject to human editorial review, factual verification, and appropriate journalistic judgment.

✏️ Corrections Policy

Pratibha Times 24 News takes factual accuracy seriously. If an error is identified in a published article, we review the matter and, where appropriate, correct or update the article as soon as reasonably possible.

Corrections may include fixing factual errors, names, dates, locations, figures, quotations, or other material information. When an important correction materially changes the understanding of a report, we may provide a clear correction or update notice within the article.

Minor typographical, grammatical, formatting, or stylistic changes may be made without a separate correction notice when they do not alter the factual meaning of the report.

🔄 Updates to Published Stories

News stories may develop after their initial publication. When significant new facts or verified information become available, we may update the relevant article to reflect the latest situation.

Where appropriate, substantial updates may be identified through an updated date, update note, or additional context so that readers can understand that the story has changed since its original publication.

🗣️ Right of Reply & Feedback

Individuals, organizations, or authorities who believe that a published report contains a significant factual error or materially incomplete information may contact our editorial team with specific details and supporting evidence.

We review credible correction requests and may update an article when the available evidence supports a correction or clarification. A request for removal or correction does not automatically guarantee that an article will be removed or changed.
