How We Gather News

Indiahood follows a transparent and structured news-gathering process, ensuring each piece of content is well-sourced and reliable:

  • Local News: Reported firsthand by our own local field reporters present across multiple regions and towns of West Bengal. These stories often reflect ground realities and community-level developments.

  • State and National Government News: Collected from official government portals, press releases, and verified social media accounts of government bodies and ministers.

  • Corporate and Business News: Sourced directly from official company websites, press releases, and verified public announcements.

  • Government Statements & National Media: At times, we use official government statements and reports published by credible national mainstream media — with appropriate citation and context.

  • National News Agencies: We also refer to recognized national news platforms such as Press Information Bureau (PIB), ANI, IANS, and others for verified and timely updates on policies, national events, and institutional developments.

We ensure that all sourced content is properly attributed, contextually accurate, and adds unique value to our audience. Even in cases of curated reporting, our internal review process includes editorial judgment and additional checks.
