Litmus: Fight the Fake News

Fake News is a buzz word these days, and rapidly increasing, especially now when Lok Sabha elections are upcoming. Fake news can be considered as fabricated information that disseminate deceptive content, or grossly distort actual news reports, shared on social media platforms. Sometimes, fake news is also manufactured by the distributers of news. Source of the news could explicitly mention themselves as satirical news site or humour tweet handle and publish a distorted news but due to wide spread social media, the same message will be forwarded to millions as real news.

The issue has become critical and wide spoken due to wide reach of social media. What would be water cooler conversations in offices and a chai charcha on a tea stall can now potentially reach millions.
