Editorial Standards & Corrections

1. Independence

• Times of Rajasthan is an independent digital news platform with no affiliation to any other media group.
• No advertiser, political party or outside interest decides our coverage. Sponsored content is always clearly labelled "Sponsored".

2. Accuracy and fact-checking

• Every fact comes from a credible source — government orders, officials, court records, police or published reports.
• Allegations are reported as allegations. Nobody is called guilty before a court rules.
• Numbers, names, dates and quotes are checked before publication. What we cannot confirm, we do not publish.

3. Sources and attribution

• Every story is checked against credible sources — government documents, officials, court records and published reports — and a record of each source is kept by our desk.
• We do not copy other publishers’ sentences or photographs. Stories are written in our own words.
• Anonymous sources are used only when the information is in the public interest and the editor knows the source.

4. Ethics and the law

• We never identify victims of sexual offences or minors (in line with the BNS and the POCSO Act).
• Suicide reports never describe the method and include a helpline (Tele-MANAS 14416).
• We avoid language that is inflammatory, communal, demeaning or sensational.
• We follow the Code of Ethics under the Information Technology (Intermediary Guidelines and Digital Media Ethics Code) Rules, 2021.

5. Corrections policy

• When we get something wrong we fix it as quickly as possible, and add a note to the story for significant corrections.
• Report an error with the "Report an error" link under every story, or by email to our corrections desk.
