The post states misrepresentation of facts by combining two unrelated factual information. CCTV is the part of a planned security modernisation initiative for designated VVIP routes. It is intended to strengthen security and monitoring along these routes. The mentioned cameras are due for installation and that too for completely different purpose, bearing no relation to the one stated in the post.

🚨 Coordinated Inauthentic Behaviour Exposed ❌ Several Pak based social media handles are simultaneously circulating a fake post featuring a picture of Chief of the Army Staff Gen Dhiraj Seth and relating it with a video of a CAPF function with malicious allegations. ✅ The image is from the COAS’s visit to Nepal and has been misrepresented to spread propaganda. 🔗 Original ANI Link: instagram.com/reel/DcGxzLPEx… ✅ This digital manipulation is a known tactic of Pak based accounts where networks of fake or hidden accounts work together to mislead people, alter public opinion and influence views about Indian Army officers. 📍They can be discerned by identifying coordinated messaging, identical language and synchronised posting patterns. 🎯 Disinformation Pattern: False Allegations + Misleading Image Association + Fabricated Claims + Coordinated Amplification = Disinformation Targeting the Indian Army Chief and the Indian Armed Forces. 📱 @GoI_MeitY: The following handles have been identified in coordinated propaganda using exactly the same content from 12:07 PM to 01:14 PM: @IndiaGenzzz, @Clashfire_, @SheerinTabassu1, @RedDeFacto, @FatimaZahidhere and @Fareehaaas. ⚠️ Verify information through official and credible sources before sharing. Do not amplify unverified or misleading claims. #FactCheck #CoordinatedInauthenticBehaviour #CognitiveCitizen @adgpi @PIBFactCheck @GoI_MeitY

🚨 Filter the Fiction ❌ FALSE CLAIM: Pakistan-linked propaganda accounts are circulating fake claims that PM Narendra Modi is preparing to remove Indian Army Chief General Dhiraj Seth for allegedly speaking against the Chief Election Commissioner. It further alleges that Army officers have been instructed to disobey his orders. ✅ FACT: The claim is fabricated and posted with a malicious intent by Pak backed accounts as part of their ongoing disinformation campaign against Indian Army. 🎯 @GoI_MeitY: The accounts @indiantiwari01 & @Diksha_sharma03 are circulating fake allegations concerning India's political and military leadership as well as creating a misleading impression of divisions within the Indian Army. ♻️ Unverified political allegations + Fabricated military disobedience narrative + Claims of internal divisions = Misleading propaganda targeting the Indian Armed Forces. ⚠️ Verify before you amplify. #IndianArmy #FakeNews #Propaganda #CognitiveCitizen #PakistanPropaganda @adgpi @PIBFactCheck @GoI_MeitY @SpokespersonMoD @PMOIndia

🚨 Trace the Truth ❌ A Pakistan-linked propaganda account is falsely claiming that the Indian Army deliberately set fire to the homes of innocent Kashmiri civilians in Poonch district, portraying the incident as a human rights violation. ✅ FACT: A massive midnight fire broke out in Loran village of Poonch district during the intervening night of 12–13 October 2026, reportedly gutting three residential houses and damaging several shops. ✅ The Indian Army reportedly rushed to assist affected residents following the fire.

Clarification A video is being recirculated on social media in which an individual falsely claims to be a Delhi Police Sub Inspector who recently resigned from service to join the ongoing protest. Verification of Delhi Police records has revealed no Sub Inspector matching the details claimed in the video. The claim is therefore unverified and misleading. Legal action will be taken as per law against those found responsible for creating or circulating misleading content. Delhi Police had already issued a clarification on this matter on 24 July 2026 , and this time the same video is again being circulated with the malicious intent. The public is advised to rely only on verified official information and refrain from sharing unverified claims. @LtGovDelhi #DPUpdates
