Content Policy: Free Speech with Responsibility

Pravodha is a community-driven professional networking platform focused on elevating skills and expertise through demonstrable contributions to the community.

1. Core Principles

Our platform supports open and honest discussions while ensuring a safe, professional, and valuable experience for all users.

    We believe in:
  1. Freedom of Expression – Users should be able to share opinions, experiences, and expertise without censorship.
  2. Credibility & Integrity – Content should be reliable, truthful, and relevant to professional growth.

However, freedom of speech does not mean freedom from consequences. To maintain high-quality discussions, we prohibit content that disrupts professional engagement.

2. Allowed Content (Open Discussions)

  • Professional Opinions & Debate – Constructive discussions, industry trends, and expert insights.
  • Challenging Ideas – Thought-provoking questions and debates that respect diverse perspectives.
  • Constructive Criticism – Feedback on industries, work culture, or professional topics, backed by reasoning.
  • Personal Experiences – Sharing career challenges, lessons, and real-world insights.

3. Restricted Content (Rules for Responsible Speech)

We do not allow content that harms the credibility, professionalism, or safety of users. The following will be moderated or removed:

  • 🚫 Hate Speech & Discrimination – No content that attacks individuals or groups based on race, gender, nationality, religion, disability, or sexual orientation.
  • 🚫 Harassment & Personal Attacks – Debate ideas, not people. No bullying, threats, or stalking behavior.
  • 🚫 Misinformation & False Expertise – No spreading false claims, misleading advice, or unverified professional credentials.
  • 🚫 Spam & Self-Promotion – No excessive advertising, mass posting, or irrelevant promotions.
  • 🚫 Trolling & Disruptive Behavior – No content designed to provoke, insult, or create unnecessary conflict.
  • 🚫 Explicit or Illegal Content – No adult material, violence, or illegal activities.

  • Think before posting – Would your content add value to the community?
