Community rules

Last updated: 6 November 2026

PollHall is for honest, respectful discussion of public issues. These rules apply to everyone, in every language.

The rules

Be respectful. Disagree with ideas, not people. No personal attacks, abuse or slurs.
No hate. Nothing that attacks or insults any religion, caste, community, gender, region or language, and no calls for violence.
Be truthful. No fake news or claims you know are false. Share a source where you can.
Protect privacy. No phone numbers, addresses, photos or private details of anyone, and no posts about private individuals.
Be yourself. Do not pretend to be another person, official or organisation.
One person, one voice. No fake or extra accounts, bots, paid or coordinated voting, spam or promotions.
No betting. No betting, gambling, money games, or offers of money or gifts for votes.
Respect elections. No exit-poll results or campaign messages during Election Commission silence periods.
Keep it legal. Nothing sexual, nothing harmful to children, and nothing that threatens India’s security or public order.
