The post states misrepresentation of facts by combining two unrelated factual information.
CCTV is the part of a planned security modernisation initiative for designated VVIP routes. It is intended to strengthen security and monitoring along these routes.
The mentioned cameras are due for installation and that too for completely different purpose, bearing no relation to the one stated in the post.

🚨 Coordinated Inauthentic Behaviour Exposed
❌ Several Pak based social media handles are simultaneously circulating a fake post featuring a picture of Chief of the Army Staff Gen Dhiraj Seth and relating it with a video of a CAPF function with malicious allegations.
✅ The image is from the COAS’s visit to Nepal and has been misrepresented to spread propaganda.
🔗 Original ANI Link: instagram.com/reel/DcGxzLPEx…

📍They can be discerned by identifying coordinated messaging, identical language and synchronised posting patterns.
🎯 Disinformation Pattern: False Allegations + Misleading Image Association + Fabricated Claims + Coordinated Amplification = Disinformation Targeting the Indian Army Chief and the Indian Armed Forces.
📱 @GoI_MeitY: The following handles have been identified in coordinated propaganda using exactly the same content from 12:07 PM to 01:14 PM: @IndiaGenzzz, @Clashfire_, @SheerinTabassu1, @RedDeFacto, @FatimaZahidhere and @Fareehaaas.
⚠️ Verify information through official and credible sources before sharing. Do not amplify unverified or misleading claims.

🚨 Filter the Fiction
❌ FALSE CLAIM: Pakistan-linked propaganda accounts are circulating fake claims that PM Narendra Modi is preparing to remove Indian Army Chief General Dhiraj Seth for allegedly speaking against the Chief Election Commissioner. It further alleges that Army officers have been instructed to disobey his orders.
✅ FACT: The claim is fabricated and posted with a malicious intent by Pak backed accounts as part of their ongoing disinformation campaign against Indian Army.
🎯 @GoI_MeitY: The accounts @indiantiwari01 & @Diksha_sharma03 are circulating fake allegations concerning India's political and military leadership as well as creating a misleading impression of divisions within the Indian Army.
♻️ Unverified political allegations + Fabricated military disobedience narrative + Claims of internal divisions = Misleading propaganda targeting the Indian Armed Forces.
⚠️ Verify before you amplify.
