Pakistani disinformation targets Exercise Trishul, linking it to Bihar elections.
Following Exercise Trishul, India’s largest Tri-Services exercise, a disinformation campaign has emerged, spearheaded by Pakistan’s propaganda machinery. This initiative included the circulation of doctored videos featuring Indian Army officials, misrepresenting their statements to claim the exercise is merely political posturing ahead of Bihar elections. The Press Information Bureau has refuted these claims, affirming that the original remarks emphasized themes of national unity and the Army’s commitment to the nation’s development. This incident underscores the ongoing battle against misinformation and highlights the need for vigilance in safeguarding the integrity of military communications, reinforcing India’s resilience against external attempts to undermine its defense strategies and domestic unity.
