New Delhi. While the digital world has made people's lives easier, it has also increased difficulties. In fact, every day many types of news and videos go viral on social media, which are not certified and increasingly start misleading people. In this context, a newspaper cutting is going viral on social media, the title of which reads 'If you do not vote, Rs 350 will be deducted from your bank account: Commission'. It is also being claimed in the post that if there is no money in the bank account then money will be deducted from the mobile recharge. The government has shared the truth related to this message through its official Twitter account.
The Press Information Bureau or PIB, the press agency of the Government of India, has revealed the truth of this viral message. PIB said that PIB has termed this claim as completely fake. No such decision has been taken by the Election Commission of India. PIB has asked people not to share misleading news.
