Gurugram: The Cyber ​​Gurugram police station on Wednesday ordered YouTube channels to spread fake news about the resignation of Manohar Minister Lal Haryana.
The channel also shows that the Interior Minister Anil VIJ has been appointed as a new CM.
The news item in question was run by TV Nation on Tuesday, with a banner title, “Master Stroke by Modi: Khattar resigned, Antil VIJ became CM.” This case was filed on the complaints of residents of Chakkarpur, Sandeep Kumar.
“The fake news was carried out with the intention to create a situation like a riot,” he accused, adding that it could incite people and create problems in the state.
Cases have been registered at the Cyber ​​police station under the IPC 153A section (promoting disharmony) and 505 (1) (b) (publishing or circulating statements or reports containing rumors or promote hostility and nursery).
There was no arrest made so far, a police officer said.
