NDA urges people not to peddle fake news 5/1/2020 10:03:07 PM EARLY TIMES REPORT JAMMU, May 1: Nations Development Association (NDA) chairman Sushil Singh Charak today urged people not to peddle fake news and cooperate with the Government in fighting the Coronavirus pandemic by listening to Government advisories and staying indoors. He said those into peddling fake news are increasing government’s problems and also inviting troubles for themselves as well. Charak said that some of those seeking restoration of 4G services in J&K seem to be excessively desperate and are even indulging in fabricating fake orders by forging the signatures of officials. He said that restoration of 4G services is purely a domain of security agencies, who can’t put lives of thousands at stake, by giving ultras a platform to weave their network. He urged people to use Government facilities at NIC and DC offices but not peddle fake news. Charak said there are many more such texts, videos, voice messages, podcasts, still pictures that have no relevance or reference to Coronavirus but people keep forwarding them by molded the same as per their conveniences. Charak urged the government that action should be taken against people who send news by creating their own news channel on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. “The government should think about these Fake news channels and take strict action against them and ask them who has given you permission to upload the news,” he said. He also urged people not to believe in rumours and follow the authentic sources of information including radio, TV and newspapers besides government spokespersons. The fake news, S.S Charak added, is not only damaging but it also creates unrest amongst masses. In these testing times when governments around the globe are fighting this pandemic, soldiers are fighting militants, philanthropists are donating, NGOs are feeding the needy people’s and economy is on lowest point, we need to be supportive in all respects and not compound issues.   Share This News with Your Friends on Social Network     Comment on this Story
