Correction Policy
Accuracy is a continuing obligation. We correct material errors when they are identified and verified.
Last updated: 20 May 2026
Our correction standard
NewsLive24 is committed to correcting material factual errors, misleading context, wrong dates, inaccurate names, incorrect figures, broken attribution, image errors and other mistakes that may affect a reader's understanding of a story.
A correction is not issued merely because a person disagrees with fair comment, analysis, editorial judgement or a properly attributed statement. However, where additional context is necessary for fairness, we may issue a clarification or update.
How to request a correction
Send correction requests to corrections@newslive24.in. Please include:
- the article URL;
- the headline and date of publication;
- the exact sentence, image, caption or data point in dispute;
- the correction or clarification requested;
- supporting documents, official records or reliable sources; and
- your name and contact details for follow-up.
Review process
The newsroom reviews correction requests in good faith. We may check official records, contact sources, review notes, inspect archives, seek legal or editorial guidance and compare the request with the published material.
Urgent errors involving public safety, legal risk, health information, elections, identity, privacy or active investigations are prioritised.
Types of changes
Depending on the issue, we may make one or more of the following changes:
- Correction: used when a material factual error is confirmed;
- Clarification: used when wording was incomplete or capable of misunderstanding;
- Update: used when new information becomes available after publication;
- Editor's note: used when transparency requires a note on the article; or
- Removal or restriction: used only in limited cases involving legal, safety, privacy or serious editorial reasons.
Visibility of corrections
Where a correction materially changes the understanding of a story, we will ordinarily place a note in or near the article. Minor spelling, grammar, formatting, broken-link or typographical changes may be corrected without a separate note if they do not affect substance.
Archival integrity
We generally do not erase the existence of previously published journalism unless required by law or justified by serious legal, safety or ethical reasons. Where practicable, updates preserve the public record while correcting the error.
