Making ensuring every output is correct to the necessary extent is our aim. This commitment is crucial to preserving our reputation and the trust of our audience.  Given the nature of the topic and material, the accuracy must be sufficient and acceptable for the output, and any constraints that may impact those expectations must be stated or emphasised.

          The Ray News is dedicated to publishing truthful information in all of its articles, no matter how big or little. We take many actions to guarantee accuracy: We analyse statements sceptically, raise doubts about assumptions, and reject received knowledge.

          Accordingly, everything of our work has to be properly referenced, grounded in the evidence that is currently available, and verified, as appropriate for its content and nature. We make an effort to avoid irrational conjecture and to be forthright and honest about what we don’t know.

          Our writers never intentionally steal content or purposefully misrepresent context or facts, especially visual data.

          When it comes to claims, statements, and allegations—especially those made by public officials or anybody with a purpose other than just presenting the facts—we look for independent verification from sources. Normally, credit is given to claims, allegations, significant facts, and other items that cannot be verified.

          The Ray News believes the information it publishes to be truthful and stands by it. We promptly update the news item/information if found incorrect. We don’t purposefully or significantly mislead our audiences. We don’t portray made-up information as truth or falsify facts in order to damage our listeners’ confidence in our work. Serious factual mistakes are acknowledged, and they are promptly, explicitly, and appropriately corrected.

         We provide a fair opportunity for the public to report any inaccuracies or errors in our reportage via ‘Suggest A Correction’ section that appears at the end of every web-story that is published.

          The main duties of our journalists are story reporting, story writing, and fact-checking. One or more editors may examine a story before publication. A multi-level fact-checking system is available in The Ray News for stories that demand careful investigation. A story’s seniority among editors who evaluate it before it is published depends on a number of variables, such as the story’s intricacy, sensitivity, and deadline pressure.

          Our Correction Criteria

          The Ray News accepts that mistakes will occasionally occur despite our constant pursuit of quality and accuracy. When these mistakes are made, raynews.in will take ownership of the problem, fix it, and uphold a strict code of openness to guarantee that everyone is certain that false information does not go out.

          The actions that each party must do in order to fulfil the objectives of quality, accuracy, and transparency are as follows:

          Visitors:
          If visitors find a mistake, they should contact the editor-in-chief, immediately by email,

          Email: raynewsup@gmail.com

          Sub: Correction Required

          A correction is not officially submitted until the reader contacts the editor-in-chief directly. Corrections submitted to other raynews.in staff members may not be addressed in a timely manner or at all.

          If sent by email or mail, corrections should include the correction, the issue date or number, where the correction was seen (in print, online, etc.) the reader’s name and a phone number or email address they can be contacted at. Readers should also include the correct information and a source for where they found that information, if applicable. For example, if a Student Senate vote tally was incorrect, please provide the minutes from that meeting.

          The reader can expect a response from the editor-in-chief and may be contacted further if a clarification is noted or the editor needs more information. Please note that a correction submission is a guarantee that the error will be investigated but not a guarantee that a correction will be issued.

          Our Action on Amendment
Once the editor-in-chief is made aware of an error, he or she will investigate the error using the information provided by the reader, meeting minutes, reporter’s recordings and any other sources of information available to him or her.

          If an error is found, the editor-in-chief will issue a correction in all forms that the information was incorrectly disseminated:

          The article will be corrected, and an editor’s note will be added to the bottom of the article noting what was incorrect and when the article was changed.

          Corrections will be printed on page 2A in the next issue published. The correction will denote the issue, article and incorrect information along with the correction.

          SOCIAL MEDIA:
          If the article was posted on Facebook, Twitter or any other online medium controlled by The raynews.in, a post will be made linking to the corrected article, noting the correction.

          Once the amendment is made, the editor-in-chief will contact the reader who submitted the correction and inform them the steps that were taken to correct the error.
