Our Commitment to Ethical Journalism: DNPA Code of Ethics
As a proud member of the Digital News Publishers Association (DNPA), we are committed to upholding the highest standards of ethical journalism. The DNPA Code of Ethics serves as a guiding framework for digital news platforms in India, promoting integrity, accountability, and responsibility in online journalism.
Core Principles We Follow:
- Accuracy & Fairness:
We strive to publish information that is factual, well-sourced, and presented with fairness. Our editorial team verifies all news before publication to ensure accuracy and reliability. - Editorial Independence:
Our newsroom operates free from political, commercial, or external influences. We maintain a clear separation between editorial decisions and business interests. - Impartiality & Balance:
We provide balanced reporting by representing diverse viewpoints, especially on controversial and sensitive issues. - Transparency & Accountability:
We are open about our sources, ownership, and funding. If errors occur, we correct them promptly and transparently. Our grievance redressal mechanism allows readers to voice concerns and seek clarifications. - Respect for Privacy:
We are sensitive to the privacy of individuals and refrain from publishing content that causes undue harm unless justified by overriding public interest. - Responsible Content:
We reject and avoid publishing content that promotes hate, violence, discrimination, or misinformation. Our editorial policies are guided by the need to inform, not inflame. - Copyright Compliance:
We respect intellectual property rights and ensure that all third-party content is used with appropriate permissions or under fair use provisions.
By adhering to the DNPA Code of Ethics, we aim to foster trust with our readers, support democratic values, and contribute positively to the media ecosystem. Our journalism is not just about delivering news — it’s about doing so with integrity, transparency, and respect for the truth.
