DISHA Claim-to-Source System

The source remains beside the claim.

DISHA claim-to-source system showing claim ID, exact claim text, direct source, evidence class, related case file, verification date, and current status.
A claim stays reviewable when its source, class, date and status remain beside it.

Direct Answer

The DISHA claim-to-source system is a live evidentiary discipline that connects each important claim to its direct source, evidence class, case file, verification date and current status. It prevents claims from drifting away from the records that support, limit or challenge them.

How this works in DISHA v6.6 runtime

Mission to evidence pipeline

DISHA does not turn every input into truth. It turns every input into a record that can be examined.

The current runtime uses a typed mission signal. A signal can include raw text, evidence files, geospatial points, threat indicators, requested action, data-source references, sensitivity, user role, device trust, action risk and telemetry risk.

  • Normalize mission into DishaSignal.
  • Select governed intelligence lenses.
  • Return findings, evidence, confidence and risk.
  • Evaluate policy before action.
  • Allow, confirm, sandbox, read-only, escalate or deny.
  • Record important steps as evidence events.

Why Claims Need Sources

A claim without a source is only a statement. A claim with a source can be examined. DISHA is built on that difference because public accountability fails when conclusions become detached from documents.

Claim Record Fields

A DISHA claim record should identify claim ID, exact claim text, direct source URL, related case file, evidence class, verification date and current status. The field names are not decoration. They are the minimum structure needed for review.

Evidence Classes

The working classes are official record, corroborated record, documented allegation, DISHA assessment and unresolved question. These labels keep primary records stronger than analysis and keep unresolved material from being inflated.

How It Works in v6.6

A mission is normalized into a DishaSignal, examined through selected lenses, evaluated by the policy gate, and recorded into the evidence ledger before the result is returned. On this page, the same principle appears as a visible claim ledger: claim, source, case file, class, date and status stay together.

Indian Public-Record Relevance

The claim-to-source system is built for records that may come from Union ministries, state departments, district offices, urban local bodies, panchayats, courts, audit bodies, public datasets, grievance systems and RTI replies. The page does not ask the reader to accept a claim without seeing what kind of record supports it.

Example DISHA Flow

Public complaint becomes source classification. The source is connected to a related government record. The record receives an evidence class. DISHA can then form an intelligence assessment, apply policy or legal checks, and preserve the result as an accountability record.

What This Page Does Not Claim

This page does not claim that every public claim is already fully verified. It explains the discipline used to keep claims connected to the strongest available source and current limitation.

This table restores the public claim-to-source ledger. It links each claim to the direct source, related case file, evidence class and last verification date so the record can be checked instead of accepted blindly.

Use the ledger

Start from the source, then read the case.

Open a source record, compare the evidence class, then move to the related case file. That is the intended reading path.

FAQ

Questions and answers

Why does every claim need a source?

Because public intelligence must be reviewable by someone other than the author.

Is a DISHA assessment an official record?

No. It is an analytical conclusion based on records and must not replace the underlying source.

What happens when a claim is unresolved?

It remains labelled unresolved until enough source evidence exists to support or contradict it.

Can a claim status change?

Yes. A status should change when new source material changes the evidentiary position.
