Source Library

How evidence is ranked.

Review TVK Tracker's source library, evidence levels, and how official records, court records, election files, and media reports are used.

Source standard

TVK Tracker is a source-linked civic information project. The site separates a public statement from a verified administrative action. A speech, manifesto, or press note can show what was promised or announced. A government order, budget entry, court record, or department data release is usually needed before the tracker treats an item as implementation.

This is especially important for political promises. A launch event can be real progress, but delivery needs stronger public evidence: rules, funding, eligibility, staffing, portals, district coverage, or outcome data. The tracker therefore uses labels such as Announced, In Progress, Needs Verification, Delayed, and No Public Update Yet.

Strongest for formal action

Official government records

Government orders, department releases, cabinet records, Assembly records, budget documents, and official public notices are treated as the strongest evidence for formal administrative action.

Strong for legal status

Election and court records

Election Commission documents, court filings, orders, and judgments are used for electoral status, legal challenges, disqualifications, and public-law developments.

Useful for public timeline

Established news publishers

Reports from established publishers are used to record speeches, political developments, criticism, public appearances, and reported claims. They do not automatically prove implementation.

Useful for stated positions

Party and leader statements

Official party pages, press notes, speeches, and leader statements are useful for promises and positions. They are labelled as announcements unless independent implementation evidence exists.
