Naya Bharat 24 is committed to accurate, fair and independent journalism. This policy applies to everything we publish, in Hindi and English, on this website and our other channels.
Accuracy and verification
- We verify facts before publishing and prefer primary sources: official documents, on-the-record statements and first-hand reporting.
- Important claims are confirmed with more than one source wherever possible.
- We clearly separate news reporting from opinion and analysis.
Sources and attribution
- We credit other news organisations when we use information they reported first.
- We do not republish other publishers' articles.
- Anonymous sources are used only when a story of public importance cannot be told otherwise, and an editor must know who the source is.
Our use of artificial intelligence
We use AI tools to help with tasks such as monitoring news sources, preparing first drafts, translating between Hindi and English, and suggesting headlines and summaries. AI does not make editorial decisions: every story is reviewed, fact-checked and approved by an editor before it is published, and our editors are responsible for everything that appears under our name.
Fairness and independence
- People who are criticised in our reporting are given a fair opportunity to respond.
- Our editorial decisions are not influenced by advertisers, sponsors or political interests. Any sponsored content is clearly labelled.
- Journalists declare any conflict of interest to their editor.
Sensitive matters
- In line with Indian law, we do not identify survivors of sexual offences, or children who are in conflict with the law or in need of care and protection.
- We report on suicide, violence and communal matters with care and avoid sensational detail.
Standards we follow
We follow the Norms of Journalistic Conduct of the Press Council of India and the Code of Ethics for digital news publishers under the Information Technology (Intermediary Guidelines and Digital Media Ethics Code) Rules, 2021.
