BRS working president vows legal action against misleading YouTube channels

Hyderabad, Mar 24 K T Rama Rao (KTR), working president of the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS), on Sunday denounced certain YouTube channels for allegedly disseminating unfounded misinformation and announced strict legal repercussions against them.
In a press statement released here, KTR expressed dismay at irresponsible behaviour of certain YouTube channels that continuously propagate falsehoods without evidence.
He emphasised that legal action, including criminal cases for conspiracy, would be pursued against such channels.
KTR highlighted the deceptive practices employed by these channels, which mislead viewers with misleading thumbnails and baseless content masquerading as news.
He asserted that such actions, driven either by blind opposition or financial incentives from the ruling party, are part of a larger conspiracy to damage reputation of his party, including himself.
Legal action has already been initiated against media organisations that have previously spread false propaganda, KTR noted, warning of defamation cases against YouTube channels engaged in disseminating falsehoods.
Additionally, he vowed to file an official complaint with YouTube to ban these channels.
While urging these channels to mend their ways, KTR cautioned that they should be prepared to face
consequences of their actions as per the law.
He called upon the people of Telangana to remain vigilant against the propaganda spread by these misleading channels.
