Belagavi, May 15 (UNI) An FIR has been registered by Karnataka Police over a fake social media post that falsely claimed an attack on the in-laws’ residence of Colonel Sofia Qureshi in Belagavi, prompting swift action from the authorities and renewed concerns over misinformation targeting defence personnel.
