AiTimeline publishes researched chronologies — timelines — of the things that shape life in India: public policy, examinations and education, energy and fuel, technology, sport and society.

The format exists because most explanatory writing answers “what is this?” and stops. A timeline answers a harder question: how did it get this way, and when did each thing actually happen? That is the question people are usually asking when a law changes, a fuel standard shifts, or a controversy resurfaces.

Who publishes this

AiTimeline is edited and written by Nazish Fatima, working from India. There is no newsroom behind it and we do not pretend otherwise — it is an independent publication with a single named editor who is accountable for every page on it.

We are not affiliated with aitimeline.live, aitimeline.world, or any open-source project named “AI Timeline”. Those are separate and unrelated projects that happen to share a name.

How a timeline is built

  1. Scope. We decide what the timeline covers and, just as importantly, what it does not. A timeline about a law covers the law, not every adjacent controversy.
  2. Record. Each entry gets a date, a description, and a reference. Where the primary record exists — a Gazette notification, a court order, a ministry release, an official statistical series — that is what we work from.
  3. Separation. Confirmed events are kept visually and structurally apart from claims, allegations, forecasts and expectations. Nearly every timeline on this site carries an explicit “confirmed versus claimed” or “confirmed versus expected” panel for exactly this reason.
  4. Review. Timelines on live topics are revisited as the record changes. Every article shows the date it was last reviewed, and lists the sources it was checked against.

What we will not do

  • State an allegation as a finding, or a forecast as a fact.
  • Invent a reviewer, a credential or an institutional affiliation we do not have.
  • Present a projection as a measurement, or a claimed figure as a tested one.
  • Leave a known error standing once it has been shown to us.

On the use of AI

We use AI tooling in producing this site — for drafting, structuring and research assistance. We think readers are entitled to know that. What the tooling does not do is decide what is true: every published timeline is reviewed by a person against the sources listed on the page, and the editor named above is responsible for what appears. Our editorial policy sets out how that review works and how corrections are handled.

Corrections and contact
