In the last few years, due to spreading fake news through Facebook and WhatsApp, there have been many incidents like rioting and mob litching. To overcome this, there was constant pressure on Facebook. Now Facebook has started a new option to identify and remove fake news in India. Now with the arrival of this new feature, if any user will post a fake news or any wrong fact on Facebook, then an alert with false information or false information can be written on that post. This information has been received from a freelance security researcher.

This new feature of Facebook was first spotted by freelance security researcher Rajasekhar Rajharia and he has shared this information with Aaj Tak. Researcher said that many incidents have occurred due to the spread of fake news through platforms like Facebook and WhatsApp.

After this, the government had put a lot of pressure on the social media giant about it. According to NCRB report, in the year 2017, 170 cases of fake news were reported in the country. In this sequence, Facebook has now started this new feature. The researcher also said that this feature was introduced at the time of the election, but then this alert was only given to the post-sharing person. However, now the company has started alerting the rest of the users as well. Facebook has also made some partners for it in India.


Researcher has said that Facebook has started the work of identifying fake news and wrong facts and removing them. For this, the company is resorting to artificial intelligence and machine learning. Researcher believes that it is very difficult to identify and remove fake news or wrong facts on such a large scale in a big country like India.

For this reason, Facebook first identifies such posts and photos with the help of AI and machine learning. These are the posts which are going viral very fast and are emotionally connected to people. Then Facebook investigates them through a link to the actual news of the third party. All this is happening through robots.

If the fact of the post or any news is found wrong, an alert will appear on it and by clicking on it you will be able to know the real information about that post or fact. Any user can identify and report fake news on Facebook.

If a factchecker rates a news as a fake, it will appear below in the news feed. This will reduce the number of people watching it. From now on repeatedly posting false information, fake news or wrong facts on Facebook, action can be taken against that account or the account can also be blocked
