Taking serious note of the on-going anti-AAP propaganda through spreading of ‘fake news’ on social media, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) today appealed to main-stream media to be cautioned of such propaganda.Spokesman of the AAP, Sukhpal Khaira today stated that as the ‘grand alliance’ of SAD-BJP-Congress knows it very well that People of Punjab have made up their minds to show them door in the forthcoming assembly polls, they resorted to adopt ‘cheap tactics’ of engineering false anti-AAP propaganda on the social media by spreading ‘hollow and fake news’.Condemning such a propaganda, which indicates another height of ‘low politics’ by the “grand alliance”, Khaira claimed that such an act shows how much frustrated these parties are, as they resorted to commit same mistakes, which they did in Delhi, which resulted in humiliating defeat of both BJP and Congress.

“People are fed up with the traditional politics of negativity and they don’t want to be made fool again and again”, Khaira said while warning these parties to resist from such activities of false propaganda.Elaborating the tactic of anti-AAP propaganda adopted by the “grand alliance”, Khaira said in an attempt to create confusion among public and AAP workers, ‘puppets’ of these parties are busy in designing and spreading the ‘fake news’ on the social media.Even some ‘unclaimed’ posters’ were pasted on the walls in some districts, which aimed to create confusion on the policies of secularism of AAP and disturb the hard earned peace and communal harmony of the state, Khaira alleged.Recent example of such propaganda is that on the social media news regarding the alleged friction between him and State Convenor Sucha Singh Chhotepur was spread, which was not having even an iota of truth, Khaira said.
