A detailed fact-check review has conclusively determined that a tweet shared by @TheLegateIN on X (formerly Twitter) is false and constitutes fake propaganda. The original post, from @DesiEsco7, featured an image with the caption 'Pakistani POV: India and Afghanistan discussing next attack in the Pakistan🤣' along with a link. Investigators traced the account and the content to a network of India-linked propaganda accounts known for spreading disinformation against Pakistan. The image and narrative have no basis in reality; no credible evidence supports any such discussion between India and Afghanistan. This is a coordinated attempt to stoke tensions and mislead audiences. In my opinion, such cheap propaganda harms regional stability and undermines trust in social media. Users must remain vigilant and rely on verified sources before sharing inflammatory content.
