Working president of the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) K.T.Rama Rao has cautioned YouTube channels against spreading misinformation and false news about the BRS and its leaders, including him, with a malafide intent and warned them of filing defamation and criminal cases if they failed to mend their ways.
In a statement issued on Sunday, he appealed to the people of Telangana to stay alert against misinformation spread by such channels and their “propaganda”. He alleged that such channels were doing it intentionally and the party would officially lodge a complaint with Google against such channels.
The BRS leader stated that instead of being responsible for disseminating information, some YouTube channels were spreading false news repeatedly without any basis and the party is mooting legal action against such channels. The party would even file defamation suits and initiate criminal proceedings.
