Yogi Govt Cracks Down On 14 X Accounts For Spreading Misinformation About Maha Kumbh

As part of its effort to curb misinformation and rumors about Maha Kumbh 2025 on social media, the Yogi government has identified and cracked down on 14 X accounts.

Under the directives of Uttar Pradesh Director General of Police Prashant Kumar, social media platforms are being closely monitored to curb misinformation, and legal action is being taken against offenders.

During surveillance, it was discovered that certain X accounts circulated an old video from Dhanbad, Jharkhand, falsely linking it to the Prayagraj Maha Kumbh. The misleading posts claimed that “Yogi government’s police is brutally beating devotees searching for their missing relatives in Maha Kumbh.”

Upon fact-checking, the video was confirmed from Dhanbad, Jharkhand, where the local police conducted a lathi-charge on January 1, 2025. The Kumbh Mela Police also refuted these claims through its official account.

The administration has deemed this an intentional attempt to malign the state government and police while inciting public discord. As a result, 14 X accounts have been identified, an FIR has been registered at Kotwali Kumbh Mela, and legal proceedings have commenced.
