Assam ‘shooting’ video: 2 booked in Karnataka for inciting hatred

In a recent incident that has heightened communal tensions, two individuals have been booked in Karnataka for allegedly sharing a video from the official BJP Assam social media account. The video, described by the complainant as 'highly objectionable and disturbing', purportedly shows a shooting incident that has incited hatred and unrest. Authorities have taken the matter seriously, recognizing the potential for such content to escalate communal discord in a sensitive socio-political climate. The police are investigating the origins of the video and the individuals involved, emphasizing the need for responsible digital sharing, especially in a diverse nation like India where communal harmony is paramount. This case underscores the challenges faced by law enforcement in regulating hate speech and misinformation on social media platforms, a growing concern in the digital age. As investigations continue, officials urge citizens to remain vigilant and report any content that may threaten social peace.
