The Ministry of Home Affairs had filed a complaint with the Delhi Police saying that it has been found that some doctored videos are being circulated by users of Facebook and X (Twitter). It said that the video seems to be doctored spreading misleading information to create disharmony among communities which is likely to affect public tranquility and public order issues.
BJP critics have been sharing the altered video on social media site with the false claim that the saffron party is planning to end reservation. The issue of reservation and constitution have become key poll plank between the BJP and the Congress.
