Independent public-interest information
Method

Fact Checking

A repeatable process for testing fuel-relief, SMS, token, eligibility and deadline claims.

Identify the claim

We record the precise wording, amount, date, location, registration channel and authority named in a claim.

Trace the source

We search the named authority’s verified channels and look for a full notification rather than a cropped image. We compare dates and archive useful references.

State the result

We use clear labels such as confirmed, unsupported, misleading, outdated or unverified. When evidence is incomplete, we say so rather than filling gaps with assumptions.
