Pakistan’s propaganda against India is increasing. These are some of the accounts that our team has exposed. The number of Pakistani fake accounts engaged in anti-India propaganda is in the thousands. The Government of India and the Union Home Ministry should take immediate steps to deal with this propaganda of Pakistan. These things are harming not only the international image of India but are also a threat to the internal security of India.
