Rumors and fake news are not only very sensational, but also very destructive. They can cause unprecedented damage to people and society. After the IT revolution, rumors and fake news have become challenging issues. Some people are using rumors and fake news to create instability in the country by targeting religion-specific fake news and rumors. In many cases these rumors and fake news have led to serious violence in many regions leading to humongous loss of life and property.

In such a scenario the role of people in the society becomes quite pivotal in handling fake news and rumors. The first thing the people must to di is confirm through reliable channels the authenticity of rumors and fake news. They should not react to the fake news emotionally; they should handle it logically.  

The Government should also control social media as far as fake news and rumors are concerned. The Government has the technical knowhow and the resources to curb the misuse of social media. And the Government has been doing it quite effectively. It has instructed the social media companies to curb the spread of fake news and rumors. As a result a limit has been put on social networking platforms such as Whatsapp, Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.  

In conclusion it can be said that social media should be used for good purposes only. And people must contribute to it by good users of the social media faccilites.

Since Social media became famous fake news about almost anything have been very constant.


People start or spread the fake news as if they are getting paid to do it.


Some people just like to see the world burn.


The role of society in all of these is that they must not act on the victim before they are sure that the news is 100% true or not.


The society is a real life concept and not a page on the internet and hence holds a lot of value.
