The Manipur government has made the public aware of an audio tape that is doing the rounds on social media and purports to be that of Chief Minister N Biren Singh. A review of social media activity reveals a concerted effort, with multiple X (formerly Twitter) accounts posting the audio with the same captions.
In order to determine the beginnings of this defamation campaign, the Manipur Police are looking into the situation. All concerned parties, whether persons and organizations, will face legal action. The public is urged by the government to use caution and refrain from disseminating unconfirmed information. Right now, it is imperative that communities live in peace and harmony, and the state administration will not put up with any behavior that jeopardizes the peace process.
