How We Source Our Data

Three principles that govern every report we publish.

01

Official Sources Only

Every data point comes from published government records — Election Commission of India Form 20 returns, GHMC ward results, and Delimitation Commission boundary orders. No surveys, no estimates, no anonymous tips.

02

Fully Disclosed Methodology

Each report states exactly which data sources were used, how figures were computed, and where gaps or limitations exist. You can verify every number we publish against the same public records we used.

03

Data, Not Opinion

BigBro Insights does not predict election outcomes, endorse candidates, or affiliate with any political party. We organise public data into formats that are useful for analysis and let the numbers speak for themselves.

Every report includes a full methodology section, data source list, and known limitations.
