Checks the harm, limits and help-line pages

Neha Bhattacharya

Responsible Gaming Officer, Cricketin

Portrait is a line drawing, not a photograph.

## About Neha

Neha covers the part of the site nobody wants to need: how harm shows up, what a deposit limit or a self-exclusion actually does, and which service answers at three in the morning. Background in helpline and counselling support in Kolkata.

Every number and service on these pages is named with its source and re-checked at each review date, because a dead help line is worse than none. Rajeev Sathe reads these pages back before they go out.

## What this role covers

- Signs of gambling harm
- Deposit limits, cool-offs and self-exclusion
- Help lines and support services in India
- Talking to someone about a gambling problem

### Where the role stops

These pages do not diagnose or treat anything, and Neha does not counsel readers. They point to a service that does, and say who runs it.

## How a page with this name on it is checked

Neha does not publish alone. Every page is read back by a second person before it goes out, and the byline names both. The standard both work to is in our [editorial policy](/en/editorial-policy).

Sources are linked in the page itself, primary text first. Where something cannot be checked yet, the page says so instead of guessing. Anything found wrong after publication is logged on the [corrections page](/en/corrections) with the date and what changed.

## Contact and conflicts

Questions about a page, a source or a correction go to the editorial desk through our [contact page](/en/contact). Name the page and the exact claim; a byline concern is handled the same way as a factual one.

Promotions do not decide what a page says: the facts are signed off by the editor, and any conflict of interest is declared before work on a page starts.
