Researchers have developed UrduFactCheck, a novel agentic fact-checking framework specifically designed for the Urdu language. This framework aims to address the critical gap in fact-checking capabilities for Urdu speakers, given the increasing concerns about the factual reliability of large language models (LLMs). The project also introduces UrduFactBench and UrduFactQA, new hand-annotated benchmarks for evaluating fact-checking and factual consistency in Urdu. An extensive evaluation of twelve LLMs using these resources demonstrated that translation-augmented pipelines significantly improve performance over monolingual approaches, highlighting persistent challenges for open-source LLMs in Urdu.
