Maharashtra: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday said the Opposition leaders who are unable to take on the BJP-led government are now misusing technology to spread fake videos on social media.
Addressing a poll rally in Maharashtra, PM Modi warned that there is a plan to create a big incident in next one month and asked people to remain vigilant and report any instances of fake videos to the authorities.
“Opponents are using AI to distort quotes of leaders like me, Amit Shah and JP Nadda to create social discord. By using technology, they are making fake videos. If you see any fake video, inform the police,” he said.
He also urged the Election Commission of India to take stern action against those creating and circulating such fake videos.
He cautioned the people against forwarding such videos as the laws are strict and that he did not want innocent people to become victims of it.
