About us

The OrthoSongbad’s prime objective is dissemination of fair and objective news and information. It makes its best efforts to keep its readers informed about the ongoing social, economic, financial and political developments daily in its Portal, and also round-the-clock through its online version. It gives extensive coverage of economic and business developments taking place at home and abroad, in its both print and online editions.

The OrthoSongbad puts particular emphasis on publication of in-depth analyses, views and opinions on major domestic, regional and global trade, business and other related issues.

The OrthoSongbad attaches importance to the broad principles of a competitive market-oriented economy; it remains steadfast in its commitment to promoting its goals and objectives in an environment in which the public policies should be geared to playing a facilitatory role under a transparent rule-based system and also to fostering inclusive growth and participatory socio-economic and political development in countries like Bangladesh.

Besides, the newspaper is focussed on promoting economic and financial literacy in the country through its reader-friendly presentation of news and views.

The OrthoSongbad is committed to serving the interest of its readers and people in general. While upholding professional and ethical values of journalism, the OrthoSongbad takes into account the prevailing laws of the country that are applicable to publications of the newspapers. It respects human rights and dignity of all citizens and takes particular care about not maligning anyone, no matter what his or her social standing is.

All those who read the daily or visit or view its website, are under legal obligation to respect, and not to infringe upon, those rights of the OrthoSongbad.

Ethics Policy

OrthoSongbad takes a non-partisan position in political issues as no political parties can influence us. Besides, it remains neutral in conflicts between justice and injustice or right and wrong.

Whatever the consequence is, OrthoSongbad never compromises on issues like national interests, human rights, rule of law, gender issues and freedom of the press.

Fact-Checking Policy

Fact-checking is considered as one of the most important elements of journalism. OrthoSongbad cross-checks the information several times before publishing it to its website. We have correspondents in all the 64 districts of the country. These huge numbers of correspondents across the country helped OrthoSongbad to cover different news and to take statements from both of the concerned sides of any incident while making any news. Besides, our correspondents cross-check the information provided by the witnesses, locals and administration.

Corrections Policy

OrthoSongbad always tries to provide accurate information to its audience. However, mistakes can happen in journalism despite following proper procedures. In these circumstances, OrthoSongbad does not hesitate to acknowledge the error.

After checking the facts correctly, the target of OrthoSongbad is to tell its readers, as quickly as possible, what was wrong and what is correct. We tried to make the thing very clear to all of our audience as anyone would be able to understand how and why that mistake has been corrected.

In times of major correction, OrthoSongbad provides a ‘rejoinder’ at its website, and we clearly indicate the change.
