Our rules

OneHimachal is a community page about Himachal Pradesh. Criticism of any government is allowed. Unsourced, personal or one-sided criticism is not.

1. 01

   Non-partisan: No party names, colours or leaders as heroes or villains. Policies and decisions are criticised, never persons.

2. 02

   Every number has a source: Official or published source linked in the caption or on the Data page, with an "as of" date.

3. 03

   Constructive format: What is happening, why it matters, what would fix it, what you can do. Criticism always ends with a fix.

4. 04

   Right of reply: Before a post criticises a specific department or project, we read its published statements; for a sharp post we invite a response and publish it if given.

5. 05

   Verification: No claim about a fire, accident or closure without two independent sources, or contributor footage with a timestamp and place.

6. 06

   Credit and consent: No feature without recorded permission.

7. 07

   AI is labelled: AI-made scenes carry Instagram's AI label and a caption line. Realistic AI illustrates ordinary life and possible futures, never incidents, news or real people.

8. 08

   Respect: Sacred places and festivals are never the joke; farmers, elders and workers are shown with dignity.
