1. Source Verification

Primary Sources: We rely on primary sources whenever possible, including official documents, government reports, expert interviews, and direct statements from credible individuals or organizations.

Secondary Sources: If primary sources are not available, we cross-check secondary sources for consistency and reliability. This includes established news outlets, academic publications, and industry experts.

Citations and References: All facts presented in articles are accompanied by links to credible sources, with proper citations when applicable. This ensures transparency and allows our readers to trace the information back to its origin.

Before publishing any content, especially for breaking news, we cross-check the information with multiple reliable sources. Our editorial team follows a strict process to confirm the accuracy of facts, quotes, and data points. If any discrepancies are found during this process, we take immediate action to clarify or remove the information.
