Bengaluru riots: Telangana Min KT Rama Rao urges social media users to not spread fake news

Hyderabad/Bengaluru: Telangana Municipal Administration Minister and working president of the ruling TRS (Telangana Rashtra Samithi) KT Rama Rao on Wednesday urged social media users to be responsible and not spread any fake news.

He was responding to media reports that violence broke out in Bengaluru over a social media post allegedly inciting violence.

“Goes to show you how dangerous spreading fake news in social media can be. Request all SM users to be responsible; don’t indulge in propaganda & stop spreading fake news.
