New Delhi, August 4 | SHABD: The Fact Check Unit of the Press Information Bureau (PIB) has flagged and debunked a series of misleading social media posts circulating false information about recent India–US tariff-related developments.
According to the PIB, several online accounts have been found attributing fabricated statements to India’s Ministry of External Affairs and former US President Donald Trump, creating confusion and spreading disinformation.
The PIB Fact Check Unit clarified that no such statements were issued by either authority and urged the public to remain cautious. “Do not fall for misinformation and fake propaganda being circulated online,” the unit stated in a public advisory.
Citizens have been advised to verify news and updates from official sources before sharing or acting on unverified information circulating on social media platforms.
