1. Our Editorial Commitment
Paliwalwani is committed to responsible, independent, accurate and transparent journalism.
Our objective is to provide readers with relevant news, information and perspectives while maintaining professional editorial standards.
2. Editorial Independence
Editorial decisions are made independently of advertising and commercial interests.
Advertisers, sponsors and external contributors cannot purchase favourable editorial coverage through advertising arrangements.
3. News Verification and Fact-Checking
We make reasonable efforts to verify information before publication. Our editorial process may include:
- Reviewing official announcements and documents.
- Contacting relevant authorities.
- Confirming information with reliable sources.
- Checking dates, names, locations and figures.
- Comparing information from multiple sources where appropriate.
Unverified information will not knowingly be presented as confirmed fact.
4. Original Reporting
Original news reports and articles are prepared by our editorial team or authorized contributors.
We aim to identify authors and sources wherever appropriate.
5. Syndicated News
Paliwalwani may publish news and articles obtained through authorized news agencies, syndication arrangements and other licensed sources.
Where required, the original source or agency will be acknowledged. Such content remains subject to the relevant copyright and licensing conditions.
6. Press Releases
Press releases received from government departments, businesses, organizations and other institutions may be published after editorial review.
A press release will not automatically be treated as independently verified journalism. Material promotional content should be identified appropriately.
7. Guest Articles and Community Contributions
Paliwalwani may accept articles, opinions, photographs, news tips and community submissions.
Contributors are responsible for ensuring that their submissions are lawful and do not knowingly contain fabricated information or infringe third-party rights.
Paliwalwani reserves the right to edit, verify, reject or remove submitted material.
8. Use of Artificial Intelligence
Paliwalwani may use artificial intelligence tools to assist with:
- Research and background preparation.
- Language improvement.
- Translation.
- Summarization.
- Headline suggestions.
- Content organization.
- Image and graphic preparation.
Human Editorial Oversight Policy:
AI tools are assistants, not substitutes for editorial responsibility. All AI-assisted material intended for publication must undergo appropriate human review.
Editors and contributors remain responsible for checking factual accuracy, names, dates, statistics, quotations and context. We will not knowingly publish fabricated quotations, invented sources or unverified claims generated by AI.
Where AI-generated or substantially AI-created material could mislead readers about its origin, we will provide an appropriate disclosure.
9. Corrections and Clarifications
We recognize that errors can occur. When a material factual error is identified, we will review it and make an appropriate correction.
Depending on the nature of the error:
- Minor typographical errors may be corrected directly.
- Material factual corrections may include an editorial note.
- Significant changes may include a correction date and explanation.
- Articles containing serious inaccuracies may be withdrawn or substantially revised.
Readers may report errors through our official contact email: paliwalwani2@gmail.com.
10. Conflict of Interest
Editors, journalists and contributors should disclose relevant conflicts of interest that may affect the independence or credibility of published material.
Commercial relationships must not improperly influence editorial decisions.
11. Advertisements and Sponsored Content
Advertising and editorial content should be distinguishable.
Sponsored articles, paid promotions and advertorials will be identified through appropriate labels such as:
- Sponsored.
- Advertisement.
- Paid Promotion.
- Brand Feature.
Advertising arrangements do not guarantee favourable news coverage.
12. Privacy and Sensitive Reporting
We aim to respect individual privacy, dignity and applicable legal protections. Special care will be taken when reporting on:
- Children.
- Victims of crime.
- Sexual offences.
- Medical information.
- Private individuals.
- Sensitive personal circumstances.
We will avoid unnecessary disclosure of personal information.
13. Hate Speech and Misinformation
We do not knowingly encourage violence, hatred, unlawful discrimination or misinformation.
Content will be reviewed in accordance with applicable law and our editorial standards.
14. Sources and Attribution
We aim to acknowledge original sources, authors, agencies and content owners wherever appropriate.
We do not knowingly present another person's original work as our own.
15. Editorial Accountability
The editorial team is responsible for maintaining these standards.
Readers may submit editorial concerns, corrections and complaints through our official contact channels.
