Fact-Checking Policy

Last Updated: June 24, 2026

At mahadbtscholarship.com, our commitment is to provide students and applicants with accurate, reliable, and verified information regarding government scholarship schemes in Maharashtra. We understand that navigating government processes can be challenging, and we take our responsibility to provide correct information seriously.

1. Our Commitment to Accuracy

We strive to ensure that all information published on this website is factual and up-to-date. Because scholarship policies, eligibility criteria, and portal interfaces are subject to change by the Government of Maharashtra, we employ a rigorous verification process to minimize the risk of misinformation.

2. Verification Methodology

To ensure the integrity of our content, we adhere to the following verification standards:

  • Official Sources: We rely exclusively on primary government sources, including official Government Resolutions (GRs), notifications issued by the Higher and Technical Education Department, and the official MahaDBT portal (mahadbt2.maharashtra.gov.in).
  • Cross-Referencing: Where applicable, we cross-reference information across multiple official government circulars to ensure consistency and context.
  • Expert Review: We monitor official announcements regularly. When major policy changes occur, we review and update existing guides to reflect the most current rules.
  • Independence: Our guides are developed independently. We do not accept payment or compensation to alter facts or provide biased information regarding scholarship eligibility.

3. Limitations of Our Fact-Checking

While we maintain high standards of research, it is important for users to note the following:

  • Government Authority: We are an independent informational resource and not an official government agency. In the event of any discrepancy between the information on our website and the official government portal, the official portal shall prevail.
  • Dynamic Policy: Government policies can evolve rapidly. While we aim to be prompt, there may be a brief delay between a government announcement and our content update.
  • Personal Circumstances: Scholarship eligibility often depends on individual documentation and specific government rules. Our content is for general guidance and cannot account for unique, individual cases.

4. Correction Policy

Transparency is central to our mission. If you identify a factual error, outdated information, or a broken link on our website, we encourage you to report it.

  • How to Report: Please contact us via our [Contact Us page] with the subject line “Correction Request.”
  • Our Process: Once a report is received, our team will investigate the claim against the latest official government documentation. If the error is verified, we will update the content within 48–72 hours and, if necessary, add a correction note to the article.

5. Transparency and Sourcing

We are committed to helping our readers verify information for themselves. Wherever possible, we include:

  • Hyperlinks: Links directly to the official government source or relevant PDF documents.
  • Clear Attribution: Explicit mentions of the department or authority responsible for the policy being discussed.

Note: We encourage all students to practice media literacy by verifying critical information on the official MahaDBT portal before submitting applications or relying on any external source for legal or financial decisions.
