At Shikhar Bharat News, accuracy is the foundation of our journalism. While we strive for 100% factual reporting, we acknowledge that mistakes can happen. Our Corrections Policy outlines how we handle errors and ensure transparency with our readers.
1. Commitment to Accuracy
Our editorial team is committed to verifying facts before publishing. All articles are reviewed thoroughly, but if any error is identified, we act quickly to correct it.
2. Types of Corrections
We categorize corrections based on the severity of the error:
- Minor Corrections: Spelling, grammar, formatting — corrected without a formal note.
- Substantive Corrections: Factual inaccuracies, names, dates, statistics, or misquotes — corrected with an editor’s note.
- Full Retractions: In rare cases, if an article is fundamentally incorrect or misleading, we may unpublish it and issue a full explanation.
3. How Corrections Are Made
- All major corrections are updated in the original article, along with a “Correction Note” at the bottom indicating what was changed and why.
- The timestamp of the article is also updated to reflect the correction date.
- We do not hide or silently modify substantial errors.
4. Reporting Errors
We encourage our readers to help maintain the accuracy of our content.
If you spot an error or have concerns about a published article, please email us at:

5. Review & Approval Process

- If confirmed, the correction is made immediately
- For sensitive or high-impact corrections, approval is taken from the Editor-in-Chief
6. Our Promise to Readers
We believe that credibility comes from transparency. If we’re wrong, we’ll say so — clearly and promptly. Your trust is our biggest asset.
