Be a rebel: Delhi Police makes Baaghi reference in fight against fake news and rumor
New Delhi/IBNS: In a bid to avoid spreading of fake news and rumours across the national capital at a time when the city witnessed violence over the new citizenship law, the Delhi Police on Tuesday started a new campaign which had a direct reference to actor Tiger Shroff's movie Baaghi.
The word Baaghi in Urdu means 'rebel'.
With the campaign poster, which featured an image of Tiger, the deputy commissioner of police of New Delhi district tweeted: "It's the BAAGHI season.
We are #Baaghi against #false & #fake. Are you?Get ready to be a Baaghi against #FakeNews.Be a rebel against all networks of false information. Be vigilant against rumour mongers. Let's unite to fight fake."
It's the BAAGHI season.
