Fake news: A screenshot of ‘Times Business’ mentioning a record loss in a 5G spectrum auction is going viral on social media.

While targeting Bharatiya Janata Party, many Congress leaders and accounts associated with the congress party shared this newspaper clip and claimed that the Government of India had suffered a loss of Rs 2.8 lakh crore in the auction of the 5G spectrum.

Moreover, this news was nowhere on the Times Business website.

 Muslims protest for appointing ‘Brahmin’ district collector!

Kisne Feka: A video showing a protest march carried out in Alleppey, Kerala is viral with the claim that it shows Muslims objecting to the appointment of a ‘Brahmin’ as a district collector.

Basheer in a drunk driving car accident 3 years ago. This protest has nothing to do with the collector’s caste or religion.
