Satish Gautam, a prominent Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP from Aligarh parliamentary constituency of Uttar Pradesh, has once again come into the limelight for his outspoken statements. His latest statement has sparked a new debate in the political circles of the entire state including Aligarh, Lucknow, Noida and Delhi-NCR. MP Satish Gautam has made a big claim while expressing concern over the rapidly increasing fake accounts and fake news on social media platforms. Taking a direct aim, he said that ‘people with round caps and long beards’ are creating IDs on social media by using fake names and photographs and are trying to spoil the atmosphere of the society.

Claim of conspiracy to spread hatred through fake ID

MP Satish Gautam has alleged that some anti-social elements, as part of a well-planned conspiracy, create fake profiles in Hindu names and then share inflammatory and objectionable posts through them. The MP said that when these profiles are examined in depth, the real face of the people behind them who wear round caps and have long beards comes to light. He claimed that the sole purpose of such acts is to mislead the majority society, create distrust on social media and create a wall of hatred between the two communities.

Demand for strict action from cyber cell

Speaking on this serious issue, the Aligarh MP has appealed to the police administration and cyber security agencies to take immediate strict action. He said that in the sensitive areas of Aligarh and surrounding western Uttar Pradesh, a strict vigil should be kept on such elements who are misusing the digital space. MP Gautam demanded that the criminals who create fake accounts and try to disturb communal harmony through them should be identified and strictest legal action should be taken against them, so that no one can dare to disturb the peace through social media.

Appealed to the society to maintain brotherhood and mutual harmony

At the end of his statement, MP Satish Gautam strongly appealed to people of all religions and sections to maintain peace, restraint and mutual brotherhood. He requested the public not to blindly believe any unconfirmed or inflammatory news coming on social media nor to share it further. The MP said that the Ganga-Jamuni culture of Aligarh is very strong and everyone will have to work together to thwart these conspirators of the digital world so that the atmosphere of unity and peace always remains in the society.
