Fact-Checking Policy

Our verification standard

1. Find the primary source: the issuing department's official website, portal, notification or press release.
2. Record the source URL, publisher, source publication date and the exact claim it supports.
3. Cross-check amounts, dates and eligibility wording character-for-character against the source.
4. Mark anything not confirmed as unconfirmed in the article, or leave it out.
5. Stamp the article with a last verified date and re-verify on every update.

What we never do

• Publish rumors, forwarded WhatsApp claims or social-media posts as facts.
• Assume a scheme is open because it was announced.
• Guess a deadline, payment date or document list.

Labels

Articles carry a verification status: Verified (all material claims traced to official sources), Partially verified (gaps are named in the article), or Unverified demo (sample content, clearly labeled, never presented as news).
