How this dashboard is made
India Daily Pulse is a reading aid. It collects public headlines and, if you ask, summarises only those headlines.
What you are looking at
Each refresh pulls public RSS and data feeds. India, world, and business headlines come from Google News topic feeds. Leader cards use a Google News search for that person's name, limited to items published in the last 36 hours. If that window is empty, the card says “No major update today.” The dashboard does not write a speech, a quote, or an action that is not in the headline.
Who is on the politics row
The row is Narendra Modi, Rahul Gandhi, Arvind Kejriwal, Mamata Banerjee, and Abhijeet Dipke. Dipke is included because this board covers CJP. News reports identify him as the founder of the Cockroach Janta Party and describe that group as an unregistered citizen campaign, not a registered party. The name is shown as reported. Cards share one size, one illustration style, and one animation. Their order rotates every IST day.
What the pictures are
The faces are identical geometric marks with initials. They are illustrated representations, not photographs, not caricatures, and not likenesses. They do not move anyone's mouth or voice.
Numbers
Sensex, Nifty, COMEX gold, and Brent crude come from Yahoo Finance. USD/INR comes from the Frankfurter ECB reference series. Inflation is the latest annual consumer-price figure from the World Bank, labeled with its year. Retail petrol and city gold rates are omitted because there is no single live national quote on these feeds. Delhi weather is Open-Meteo.
Trends, words, and the map
Trending topics are Google's India daily trends, including the traffic band Google publishes. There is no invented sparkline of search interest. The word row counts repeated words in headlines. The country chart counts country names in headlines. Neither is a poll.
Fact-check labels
A label such as “Says false” means those words appear in the headline. “Unlabeled” means they do not. This product does not investigate the claim itself. Open the newsroom link.
AI
A briefing, a plain-language note on the politics row, or a search analysis runs only after you press the button. The model is asked to use only the headlines already on the page, to cite them, and to avoid political advice. “Explain like I'm 15” changes the reading level of that request. Results are cached for about 15 minutes. If AI is unavailable, the headlines stay.
What is stored on your device
Language, theme, the simpler-language switch, a visit streak, saved topics, and a reminder preference stay in this browser. The app does not send email, WhatsApp, or push alerts from a server. Nothing you type there is an account.
What this is not
It is not an official bulletin, not a party, and not advice on how to vote or invest. Headlines can be wrong, late, or biased. Read the original story.
