Fact Check Policy

Last Updated: July 2026

Our Commitment to Accuracy

At Mausam Breaking, accuracy is the foundation of our journalism.

Weather information directly affects agriculture, travel, public safety, disaster preparedness, business operations and everyday life. Because of this, we believe that every article, weather update, forecast and alert should be prepared with care, responsibility and transparency.

Our Fact Check Policy explains how we verify information before publication, how we review reported inaccuracies and how we continuously improve the reliability of the information published on our platform.


Why Fact Checking Matters

Weather information can influence important decisions made by millions of people.

Incorrect or misleading weather information may lead to confusion, unnecessary concern or poor decision-making.

For this reason, we strive to verify available information using reliable public sources before publication whenever reasonably possible.

Although no editorial process can eliminate every possibility of error, our goal is to minimize inaccuracies through careful editorial review and continuous quality improvement.


Our Fact Checking Principles

The editorial team follows several guiding principles when reviewing information.

1. Accuracy

We aim to publish information that is factually accurate based on the best publicly available information at the time of publication.


2. Verification

Where appropriate, important factual information is compared with reliable public sources before publication.


3. Transparency

If verified new information becomes available after publication, articles may be updated accordingly.

Where corrections are necessary, they are handled in accordance with our Corrections Policy.


4. Accountability

We welcome responsible feedback from readers, experts and public institutions.

Constructive feedback helps improve the quality of our reporting.


5. Public Interest

Editorial decisions prioritize public interest, especially during severe weather events and public safety situations.


What We Verify

Depending on the type of article, editorial verification may include:

  • Weather forecasts
  • Rainfall information
  • Temperature data
  • Wind information
  • Humidity
  • Cyclone developments
  • Flood updates
  • Landslide information
  • Government weather advisories
  • Disaster alerts
  • Agricultural weather information
  • Geographic references
  • Dates and time references
  • Scientific terminology
  • Official announcements

The extent of verification may vary depending on the availability of reliable information.


Sources We May Use

Mausam Breaking relies on publicly available information from reliable sources whenever appropriate.

These may include:

  • India Meteorological Department (IMD)
  • Haryana Agricultural University (HAU)
  • Government Meteorological Departments
  • Disaster Management Authorities
  • Skymet Weather
  • Open-Meteo
  • Official Government Bulletins
  • Government Press Releases
  • Public Weather Data Services
  • Scientific Publications
  • Field Reports
  • Satellite-based Public Information
  • Other credible public sources

Where practical, multiple sources may be reviewed before publication.


Editorial Verification Process

Our editorial review generally includes:

Step 1

Collection of publicly available weather information.

Step 2

Review of official bulletins and available public data.

Step 3

Comparison of important facts using multiple reliable references where appropriate.

Step 4

Editorial review for clarity, consistency and public value.

Step 5

Publication.

Step 6

Post-publication monitoring and updates where necessary.


Weather Forecast Verification

Weather forecasting differs from reporting historical facts.

Forecasts are scientific predictions based on evolving atmospheric conditions.

As weather models update and new observations become available:

  • Rainfall forecasts may change.
  • Temperature predictions may change.
  • Cyclone tracks may shift.
  • Storm intensity may change.
  • Warning levels may be revised.

Accordingly, updates to forecast-related articles should not automatically be interpreted as factual errors.

Forecast updates are a normal part of meteorological science.


User-Generated Content

Readers may submit:

  • Weather observations
  • Photographs
  • Videos
  • Local weather reports
  • News tips

Before editorial use, such submissions may be reviewed for relevance, authenticity and public value wherever reasonably possible.

Submission alone does not guarantee publication.


Artificial Intelligence (AI)

Artificial Intelligence tools may assist with:

  • Language editing
  • Formatting
  • Translation
  • Workflow efficiency
  • Content organization

However:

  • AI does not independently determine factual accuracy.
  • Human editorial oversight remains essential.
  • Editorial responsibility always rests with the editorial team.

Misinformation

Mausam Breaking does not knowingly publish false or misleading information.

If any published information is found to be inaccurate, we review it promptly and make appropriate corrections where necessary.

We discourage the sharing of unverified weather rumors, manipulated images or misleading social media posts.


Reader Feedback

Readers are encouraged to report possible inaccuracies.

Please include:

  • Article URL
  • Description of the issue
  • Supporting evidence
  • Official references (if available)

Every genuine submission is reviewed fairly by the editorial team.


Independent Editorial Judgment

Fact-checking decisions are made independently.

Editorial reviews are not influenced by:

  • Advertisers
  • Sponsors
  • Political organizations
  • Commercial interests
  • External pressure

Editorial independence remains one of our core principles.


Continuous Improvement

Fact-checking is an ongoing editorial responsibility.

As journalism, meteorological science and digital publishing continue to evolve, Mausam Breaking will regularly review and improve its verification practices to strengthen public trust and editorial quality.
