Contributor Guidelines

By the NewEdgePolicy Editorial Team · Last updated 13 July 2026

Anyone contributing must source from primary documents, disclose conflicts, write in plain language, and never fabricate facts or credentials.

Requirements for contributors

Every material claim must be traceable to a primary source (IRDAI, government, or the policy wording).
No fabricated facts, statistics, reviews, or credentials — ever.
Disclose any relationship with an insurer, broker, or aggregator before contributing on a related topic.
Write for reader understanding; avoid sales language.

Review

All contributed content goes through the same Review Process as our own. Contributions that cannot meet the sourcing standard are not published.

Keeping this honest. If any statement here is inaccurate, out of date, or unclear, please tell us. We log corrections with the date they were made. This page is reviewed on our standard editorial cycle.

Research MethodologyWe research every topic from primary sources first — IRDAI regulations and circulars, insurer policy wordings, and official government data — before writing a single sentence.

Evidence MethodologyKey claims carry a machine-readable evidence record — the authority behind them, the source, its date, and a confidence level — so you and AI systems can verify them.

Source Selection PolicyWe rank sources by authority. Regulators and primary documents sit at the top; insurer and aggregator marketing sits at the bottom and is never used as proof.

Fact-Checking PolicyBefore a page publishes, its material claims are checked against the primary source and recorded in our evidence layer. Anything we cannot verify does not go in as fact.
