Formal request submitted to SPDA against a social media channel for broadcasting fabricated news targeting the Congress Party.
Why It Happened
A social-media channel, TV Vikrama, was found to be broadcasting fabricated news targeting the Congress Party and its leaders in Ballari. Instead of responding with counter-misinformation, the Youth Congress chose the institutional route — a formal complaint to SPDA seeking accountability under media-regulation norms.
Public Impact
Demonstrated to citizens that the Youth Congress fights fake news through proper legal and institutional channels — not through online warfare.
Youth Participation
Karyakartas compiled evidence — broadcast clips, dates and impact assessments — that formed the basis of the formal complaint.
Leadership Involvement
President K Srikanth and the office-bearer team led the formal submission at the SPDA office.
