Fact Check Policy

Accuracy is the foundation of Bihar Board Online (biharboard.online). Our readers act on what we publish; they download admit cards, check results, apply for jobs, and make decisions about their education and careers based on our updates. This Fact Check Policy explains exactly how we verify information before it reaches you.

Our Verification Standard

We follow a simple, strict rule: nothing is published as a fact until it is confirmed by an official source. For Bihar education and employment content, the official source is the Bihar School Examination Board (BSEB), Bihar Public Service Commission (BPSC), Bihar Staff Selection Commission (BSSC), the relevant government department, or an official gazette notification.

What We Always Verify

  • Dates — result dates, admit card release, application start and end dates, and exam dates.
  • Numbers — vacancy counts, application fees, marks, cut-offs, age limits.
  • Eligibility — qualification, age, category, and reservation rules.
  • Links — we check that every official link works and points to the genuine government or board portal.
  • Process steps — how to apply, download, or check tested against the live portal.

How We Handle Unconfirmed Information

Sometimes a date or detail is widely expected but not yet officially announced. In those cases we never present it as confirmed. We clearly label such information as “expected,” “tentative,” or “as per previous years,” and we update the article the moment the official confirmation arrives. We would rather be somewhat later and correct than first and wrong.

Multiple-Source Rule for News

For developing news that is not yet on an official portal, we require corroboration from at least two credible, independent sources before reporting, and we attribute the information clearly so readers know where it came from and how firm it is.

Who Fact-Checks

The writer carries out fact-checking during drafting, and a senior editor independently re-checks it before publishing. The Editor-in-Chief holds final responsibility for the accuracy of every page on Bihar Board Online.

When We Get It Wrong

If a factual error slips through, we correct it transparently and promptly. Readers can report any suspected error to [email protected]. See our Corrections Policy for full details.
