Delhi Police Block 400 Pakistan-Operated Handles for AI Deepfakes on Student Protests

The Delhi Police have blocked over 400 social media handles that they say are operated from Pakistan.

These handles were spreading fake news and deepfake videos about student protests in Delhi.

The police say these handles also spread false information during a previous event called Operation Sindoor.

They are working with other agencies to find more such handles.

The police have warned people to check the facts before sharing anything on social media, especially on Instagram.

They also said that a claim about a protester's death was false, and the person is actually alive and receiving treatment.

The protests are about a test called NEET, where some people think there was cheating.
