A team from the Delhi Police will be reaching Telangana to serve the notice to individuals who tweeted this fake video. “Since INC Telangana posted it on X (formerly Twitter), notice will be served to them also,” said the sources. 

Earlier, Amit Malviya, the head of the BJP IT cell, had said that the Telangana Congress faction was circulating a doctored video of Amit Shah, alleging it to be entirely fabricated and capable of inciting widespread violence.

The matter is under investigation.  We are trying to trace the origin of the video and people who posted it will be questioned and notice will be served to them to participate in the probe, said the sources. 

This comes after Delhi Police on Sunday registered an FIR after two complaints were received by police, one from the BJ and another from the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA).  Following this, the Delhi Police Special Cell Cyber Wing’s IFSO unit filed an FIR.

A case has been registered under Sections 153, 153A, 465, 469 and 171G of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and section 66C of the Information Technology (IT) Act

The video seems to be doctored, spreading misleading information with the intention of creating disharmony among communities which is likely to affect public tranquility and public order issues.  It is requested to kindly take necessary legal action as per the provisions of law, the minister said, as per the FIR.
