A detailed fact-check review confirms that a viral tweet posted by the account @TheLegateIN on X (formerly Twitter) falsely claims that the Indian Army Chief urged the nation to be ready for 'Operation Sindoor 2.0' and 'Operation Snow Leopard 2.0' amid heightened tensions. The claim is entirely fabricated; no such statement was made by the Army Chief or any official military source. The account @TheLegateIN is known for promoting pro-India propaganda and has been linked to coordinated disinformation networks. This fake narrative appears designed to escalate public anxiety and project a false sense of military aggression. In my opinion, such disinformation undermines trust in credible news sources and risks provoking unnecessary public alarm. It is crucial for social media platforms and users to flag and reject such manipulated content, especially when it involves sensitive national security matters. Fact-checkers have traced the tweet's origins to known India-linked propaganda accounts that routinely amplify unverified or false claims to sway public opinion. The public is advised to rely only on official defense ministry communications and verified news outlets for accurate updates.
