How we check facts
How we check facts
Where our information comes from and how we explain its limits.
Our viewpoint
Yogi2027 is a supporter-run publication, not an official government, party or candidate website. We select positive public-work stories. We do not claim this is a comprehensive audit or a neutral account of every policy.
Where we look for information
We start with the organisation responsible for a project, official reports and government orders. For the life story, we also use reliable reporting and reference works. Each project article includes dates, sources, the organisations involved and any important gaps in the information.
An official opening report can tell us when something opened. It does not, by itself, prove how well the service works today or how much it has helped people.
A plan is not the same as a finished project
Announced, approved, under construction, opened, operational, and independently evaluated are not interchangeable. Neither are proposed investment and completed investment, nameplate capacity and actual output, or an opening ceremony and present service quality.
We credit central and state agencies, institutions and work done earlier. Taking a positive view is not a reason to inflate a number or leave out an important qualification.
What we could read, and how we translate
The source list tells you whether we read a page in full or could only check an excerpt shown in search results. Originals we couldn't open still need to be rechecked before public launch. An article's publication date is different from the date of the event it describes.
English and Hindi include the same facts and qualifications. Translation must not change numbers, hide uncertainty or change political messages for a particular group of readers.
Images and corrections
Photographs have visible credits, license links and accurate captions. Illustrative craft photography is not evidence that the pictured work received government support. A historical photograph is not proof of present conditions. Original illustrations are labelled so they aren't mistaken for project photos.
If an important fact is corrected, we should explain the change and update the review date. The corrections page explains how to report a mistake. We don't need to publish a new article every day when there is nothing verified to add.
