PIB Fact Check Unit Invites Public Engagement to Combat Fake News
The Press Information Bureau (PIB) of India's Ministry of Information and Broadcasting has set up a Fact Check Unit (FCU) to tackle misinformation about the government. Established in November 2019, the FCU encourages the public to report dubious information via WhatsApp, email, or the PIB website. This unit verifies content and shares authentic information through digital platforms, serving as a pivotal tool during events like Operation Sindoor, where it played a role in countering false online narratives.
