1. Commitment to Truth and Accuracy
At JodhpurToday.in, accuracy is our fundamental pillar. We strive to present news that is verified, clear, and contextually accurate. All facts, names, dates, casualty figures, and official statements are corroborated with direct authorities, police departments, or verifiable ground eyewitnesses before publishing.
2. Independence and Impartiality
JodhpurToday operates as an independent news platform. Our reporting is free from political party influence, commercial bias, or religious favoritism. When reporting on disputes, municipal issues, or political developments, we give fair representation to all involved parties.
3. Sourcing and Transparency
We prioritize named on-the-record sources. Anonymous sources are only permitted when there is an immediate risk to the individual's safety or livelihood, and the information has been independently corroborated by our senior editors. Wire services and RSS aggregations are clearly attributed.
4. Separation of News and Opinion
Sponsored articles, commercial advertisements, and editorial opinion columns are explicitly demarcated with clear tags (e.g. "Sponsored", "Editorial") to prevent any confusion with objective news coverage.
5. Sensationalism & Crime Reporting Guidelines
In reporting crime, accidents, or sensitive incidents in Jodhpur, we do not publish graphic or gore imagery. The identity of minors and victims of sexual harassment/violence is strictly protected in compliance with Indian legal statutes (POCSO and IPC guidelines).
