Fact-Checking Policy

a) Commitment to Accuracy: Khabrilall.in is dedicated to ensuring that all content published is accurate. We take rigorous steps to verify claims, question assumptions, and challenge conventional wisdom.

b) Due Accuracy: We are committed to maintaining due accuracy in all our outputs, which is crucial for our reputation and the trust of our audience. “Due” accuracy means the information is appropriate and adequate for the content, considering the subject and nature, and we clearly mention any constraints affecting this expectation.

c) Evidence-Based Reporting: Our content must be well-sourced, based on available evidence, and corroborated. We aim to be transparent about what we don’t know and avoid unsupported speculation.

d) Integrity in Journalism: Our journalists are committed to not plagiarizing or deliberately distorting facts or context, including visual information.

e) Verification of Information: We seek independent verification from sources to confirm claims, especially those made by public officials or those with agendas beyond simply reporting the truth. Claims and significant facts that cannot be corroborated are generally attributed.

f) Correcting Errors: Khabrilall.in stands by the accuracy of its published information. If errors are identified, we correct them as quickly as possible. We do not intentionally mislead our audience or distort facts. We acknowledge and rectify serious factual errors promptly and appropriately.

g) Public Reporting of Inaccuracies: We provide a “Suggest A Correction” section at the end of each web story, allowing the public to report any inaccuracies or errors.

h) Editorial Review: Our journalists are responsible for reporting, writing, and fact-checking stories, which are then reviewed by one or more editors. Khabrilall.in has a multi-level fact-checking process for stories that require thorough review. The seniority of the editors reviewing a story depends on its complexity, sensitivity, and time constraints.

Correction Policies

While Khabrilall.in strives for accuracy and excellence, we acknowledge that errors may occur. When errors are identified, Khabrilall.in takes responsibility for correcting them and ensures transparency to prevent the spread of incorrect information.

Steps for Achieving Accuracy, Transparency, and Excellence:

READERS:

  • If a reader identifies an error, they should contact the editor-in-chief immediately via email, phone, mail, or in person.

  • Email: khabrilallnews@gmail.com

  • Subject: Correction Needed

  • A correction request is officially recognized only when the reader contacts the editor-in-chief directly. Requests submitted to other staff members may not be addressed promptly or at all.

  • When submitting a correction, include the issue date or number, where the correction was seen (in print, online, etc.), the reader’s name, and a contact phone number or email address. Provide the correct information and a source for verification, if applicable.

Khabrilall.in:

  • Upon being notified of an error, the editor-in-chief will investigate using the provided information, meeting minutes, reporter’s recordings, and other available sources.

  • If an error is confirmed, the editor-in-chief will issue corrections in all formats where the incorrect information was disseminated:

PRINT:

  • Corrections will be printed on page 2A in the next issue, specifying the issue, article, incorrect information, and the correction.

Khabrilall.in:

  • The article will be corrected, and an editor’s note will be added to the bottom, indicating what was incorrect and the date of the correction.

SOCIAL MEDIA:

  • If the article was posted on social media, a post will link to the corrected article, noting the correction.

  • After the correction is made, the editor-in-chief will inform the reader who submitted the correction about the steps taken to address the error.
