At The Bharat Post, journalism is a responsibility, not a race. Our editorial policy exists to ensure that every piece of content we publish is accurate, contextual, ethical, and worthy of public trust.
1. Editorial Independence
The Bharat Post operates with complete editorial independence. Our content is not influenced by political parties, corporate entities, advertisers, or external pressure. Opinions expressed in opinion pieces belong to the author and are clearly distinguished from factual reporting.
2. Accuracy & Verification
Accuracy is non-negotiable. Every story is researched, verified, and cross-checked using credible sources before publication. We avoid speculation, half-truths, and unverified claims. If a fact cannot be confirmed with reasonable certainty, it is not published as news.
3. Context-First Journalism
We believe news without context is misinformation in disguise. Our reporting prioritises historical background, geographical relevance, cultural understanding, and factual depth. Readers should not only know what happened, but also why it matters.
4. Corrections & Transparency
Despite rigorous checks, errors can occur. When they do, we correct them promptly and transparently. Corrections are made clearly without attempting to conceal or rewrite history. Accountability strengthens trust.
5. Ethical Reporting
We do not publish content that incites violence, hatred, or discrimination based on religion, caste, gender, nationality, or ideology. Sensitive subjects are handled with care, dignity, and respect for all parties involved.
6. Originality & Plagiarism
All content published by The Bharat Post is original unless explicitly credited. Plagiarism, content scraping, or misleading reuse of material is strictly prohibited.
7. Sponsored & Branded Content
Sponsored or branded content, if published, is clearly labelled. Such content does not influence editorial decision-making or news coverage.
8. Spiritual, Cultural & Informational Content
We publish spiritual, cultural, and educational content with the same level of research and respect as news reporting. Faith-based or cultural topics are approached thoughtfully, without mockery, distortion, or sensationalism.
