Bralads Corrections Policy: How to Report and Fix an Error

The Bralads corrections policy explains how readers can report an error and how the editorial team handles verified changes. The objective is straightforward: correct material inaccuracies promptly, make important changes understandable and improve the source or review process that allowed the problem to appear.

A correction is different from a routine style edit. Fixing a typo that does not change meaning may not require a note. Changing a price, safety instruction, eligibility rule, attribution or conclusion can materially affect the reader and should be handled more visibly.

What readers can report

Please contact Bralads if you find:

  • a factual claim contradicted by a current primary source;
  • an outdated rule, deadline, price or product status;
  • a broken or misdirected source link;
  • a quotation or idea attributed to the wrong person or organisation;
  • a calculation error;
  • an image, heading or description that creates a materially misleading impression;
  • an important Indian context or eligibility condition that is missing.

Differences of opinion are welcome, but they are not automatically factual errors. When an article makes a recommendation, the useful question is whether the evidence, criteria or trade-offs were represented fairly.

How to submit a clear correction request

Use the official Bralads contact page and include:

  1. the exact article URL;
  2. the heading or sentence that may be wrong;
  3. a short explanation of the issue;
  4. a current primary source or original document, when available;
  5. the date you accessed that source.

Do not include passwords, banking credentials, one-time codes, full identity documents or unnecessary sensitive personal information. A correction can normally be reviewed without those details.

How Bralads reviews a report

The team checks whether the reported claim appears on the current page, whether the new evidence is authoritative and whether the evidence applies to the same date, place and situation. For regulated topics, the responsible regulator or government body is generally stronger evidence than an unsourced repost or promotional page.

The review may produce one of four outcomes:

  • Confirmed correction: a material factual error is changed.
  • Update: the original statement was accurate when published but circumstances changed.
  • Clarification: the wording was technically accurate but could reasonably mislead readers.
  • No change: the evidence does not contradict the article or addresses a different situation.

How changes appear on a page

Minor spelling, grammar and formatting fixes may be made silently when meaning is unchanged. A material correction or clarification should be reflected in the article text and, where useful, in a correction or update note. The visible date may also be updated when substantial content has been reviewed.

Bralads does not change a page merely to make it look newer. An update date should represent a meaningful editorial review, not a cosmetic timestamp change.

Corrections and search visibility

A correction should serve the reader first. Important details should be fixed on the same canonical article whenever the page still answers the same question. Creating a second near-duplicate page can split signals and leave the inaccurate version accessible. If a page has been permanently replaced, an appropriate redirect may be clearer than keeping two competing copies.

This approach also supports clean indexing: one main URL for one main purpose, descriptive internal links and archive pages that show summaries rather than republishing full articles.

What Bralads asks from sources and subjects

A business, organisation or person mentioned in an article may request a factual correction through the same process. Commercial pressure, advertising relationships or a preference for more flattering wording are not evidence that a factual statement is wrong. The team evaluates the claim and evidence, not the status of the requester.

How this policy connects to the wider site

Topic selection, sourcing and review are described in the Bralads editorial process. Readers who want to confirm the domain can use the official Bralads website guide. General information about the publication is available on the About page.

Corrections are part of publishing, not an exception to it. A transparent way to identify, verify and repair errors helps keep Bralads useful as facts and circumstances change.
