Pak-Based Handles Active During Op Sindoor Spread Rumours Amid Protests: Cops
Delhi Police officials have flagged the involvement of Pakistan-based social media accounts in spreading misinformation during Operation Sindoor. These handles are allegedly circulating edited videos and fake news to incite public unrest during ongoing protests.
Law enforcement authorities in Delhi have identified a coordinated effort by social media handles operating out of Pakistan to exploit domestic tensions. According to investigators, these accounts are intentionally pushing narrated rumors to aggravate the current situation in the capital.
Officials stated that the primary tactic involves the distribution of doctored video content and fabricated posts focused on Operation Sindoor. These digital assets are designed to mislead the public and specifically target the student community to encourage participation in demonstrations.
The police have warned citizens against sharing unverified information originating from suspicious sources. Monitoring teams are currently tracking several active accounts to mitigate the impact of external interference on local law and order stability.
