The demolition of a temple in tamil Nadu by the National Highways Authority of india (NHAI), which operates under the jurisdiction of Union minister Nitin Gadkari and the central government led by prime minister Narendra Modi, has sparked significant controversy. The move, executed as part of infrastructure development projects, has faced backlash from locals and religious groups, who view it as an insensitive act against a site of cultural and spiritual significance. While the central government is directly responsible for the activities of the NHAI, the issue has been politicized, creating a narrative that shifts the blame to the ruling DMK government in tamil Nadu.

The bjp IT cell has been circulating videos and messages online, attempting to pin the temple’s demolition on the DMK, which is the state government in tamil Nadu. This tactic appears to be aimed at misleading citizens, especially in North india, where there may be less awareness of the distinction between state and central government responsibilities. By framing the issue as an act of disregard by the DMK towards Hindu sentiments, the bjp seeks to damage the image of its political opponent while shielding itself from criticism for a decision taken by a central authority. This disinformation campaign reveals the party’s strategic use of social media to manipulate public perception and divert accountability.

Such incidents highlight the growing challenge of misinformation in indian politics, where social media platforms become battlegrounds for influencing public opinion. Instead of addressing the legitimate concerns surrounding heritage preservation and religious sentiments, the focus shifts to communal and political blame games. This not only deepens divisions but also obscures the need for transparent governance and accountability. For citizens, recognizing the responsibilities of state versus central authorities is crucial to ensuring informed discussions and preventing political narratives from undermining the truth.
