Grievance Redressal & Corrections Policy

Flairius News (flairiusnews.com) is deeply committed to the highest standards of journalism, ethical conduct, and public accountability. Consequently, we operate in compliance with the Information Technology Rules. Specifically, we have established a robust, transparent system to address complaints, grievances, and requests for corrections regarding our published content.
If you believe any content on our website violates the Code of Ethics or contains a factual error, you can lodge a formal grievance. Therefore, please use the mechanism detailed below.
1. The Three-Tier Grievance Redressal Mechanism
As a digital news publisher, we operate under a structured three-tier regulatory framework. Ultimately, this ensures our team handles your complaints impartially.
- Tier I (Self-Regulation by the Publisher): First, this is your immediate point of contact. Our internal Grievance Officer handles your grievance directly. Furthermore, the officer will investigate and resolve the issue within 15 days.
- Tier II (Self-Regulation by Self-Regulating Bodies): Second, you can escalate the complaint if you are unsatisfied with our Tier I response. Specifically, you can appeal to the independent self-regulating body of publishers to which Flairius News belongs.
- Tier III (Oversight Mechanism): Third, the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting manages this final tier. Essentially, they conduct an inter-departmental review if the lower tiers fail to resolve the issue.
2. Tier I: Contact Our Grievance Officer
Any person aggrieved by the content published on flairiusnews.com can file a complaint directly. Specifically, you must contact our designated Grievance Officer.
