The Story Behind Ferox Times

We started Ferox Times right here in Bengaluru because we were frankly exhausted by the noise. Today, a lot of what passes for news is just propaganda or sensationalism designed to get clicks. We realized that people deserve to see the actual facts, not just opinions dressed up as reporting. In a world full of unverified rumors, we wanted to build a place you could actually trust.

Our dedicated editorial team covers breaking news across India and the world—from political shifts and economic updates to technology, sports, and culture. We don't care about being the first to publish if it means we might be wrong. Every single story you read on Ferox Times has been reviewed by at least one editor before it reaches you.

But we don't do this alone. Through our Independent Writer programme, we welcome journalists and subject-matter experts to share their on-ground perspectives. To keep our standards high, every contributor submission goes through the exact same rigorous editorial review before publication—no exceptions.

Our Mission

To keep the public informed with reporting that is accurate, contextualised, and honest. We believe that a well-informed citizenry is the foundation of a functioning democracy, and that access to reliable news should not be a privilege restricted to a few. Ferox Times is and will remain freely accessible to every reader.

What We Cover

Our reporting spans several major subject areas, each handled by editors and writers who follow the field closely:

• India & World News: National politics, government policy, elections, international relations, and conflict reporting — sourced, attributed, and verified.
• Business & Economy: Markets, corporate developments, startups, trade policy, and economic data explained clearly for general readers as well as professionals.
• Technology: From AI and cybersecurity to consumer gadgets and space exploration — we cover the technology stories that affect everyday life and long-term futures.
• Sports: Cricket, football, athletics, and more. Match reports, injury updates, transfers, and analysis from correspondents who follow the sport seriously.
• Entertainment & Culture: Film, music, television, books, and the cultural conversations that reflect who we are as a society.

Our Contributor Network

We believe that some of the most important journalism comes from people who are closest to the story — local reporters, policy specialists, scientists, educators, and whistleblowers. That is why we operate an Independent Writer Network that allows approved writers to publish on Ferox Times after completing our editorial review process.

To become an Independent Writer, applicants go through an identity verification step, agree to our Editorial Guidelines, and must provide supporting evidence for every article they submit. This is not a formality — it is the core of how we maintain the quality and legal integrity of what we publish.

Our Editorial Principles

• Accuracy above speed: We will always confirm before we publish. If we get something wrong, we correct it promptly and transparently.
• Independence: Ferox Times is not funded by political parties, government grants, or corporate sponsors with editorial influence. Our independence is non-negotiable.
• Fairness: When a story involves allegations against a person or organisation, we make a genuine effort to reach the other side before publishing.
• Transparency: We clearly label opinion and analysis pieces so they are never mistaken for straight news reporting.
• Accountability: We hold a corrections policy. Errors are acknowledged publicly, not quietly deleted.

Our Vision

We want Ferox Times to become the news source that readers in India and across the world turn to when they need to understand what is actually happening — without the spin, without the sensationalism, and without the agenda. That is a high standard to hold ourselves to, and we do not take it lightly.
