Maharashtra Cyber cell to monitor social platforms ahead of Ayodhya verdict

The Maharashtra Cyber police has formed a special team to monitor social media platforms to ensure that no inflammatory comments or messages are circulated for spreading hatred ahead of the Supreme Court’s ruling on Ram Janmabhoomi-Babri Masjid title dispute.

The verdict on the communally sensitive issue is expected before Chief Justice of India Ranjan Gogoi retires on November 17.

The Maharashtra Cyber department will be gathering intelligence inputs and will also report to the concerned state police if any inflammatory posts are found to be originating from the concerned state.
