Outline

Fake news has become a disruptive force in societies around the world.
In India, rumours spread on WhatsApp are widely seen as a key factor in the mob killings. The scale of the problem has led to calls for the government to bring in new legislation and for some of the social and messaging platforms to add new functionality to combat the issue.
The violence has been blamed on rumours of child kidnappings, spread over messaging platforms and social media, which have led people to attack strangers. Media organisations, independent fact-checkers, law enforcement units and citizen-led groups are already devoting more resources to helping audiences understand what news they can trust.

we’ve launched Reality Check- Portfolio Tracker Team, specifically devoted to explaining the facts behind the news and debunking misleading headlines. We are working with various organisation to organise Hack-a-thons and Design Sprints to combact on this issue :)
