💨 Abstract

Police in Mahakumbh Nagar have registered FIRs against eight individuals for spreading misinformation about the ongoing Maha Kumbh on Twitter and Instagram. One post falsely claimed that Maha Kumbh 2025 was a "death festival" and showed a video from Nepal, while another video on Instagram falsely claimed that bodies of deceased pilgrims were being floated in the river and their kidneys were being harvested before disposal.
