Haryana Police registered 297 hate speech cases recently

The Haryana Police have taken significant action against hate speech over the past decade. They filed 297 cases, also known as FIRs, against people who spread hate or disrupt public peace. In this time, they arrested 472 suspects and removed 502 URLs of harmful social media accounts. The Director General of Police, Shatrujeet Kapoor, shared these details. He explained that as technology evolves, its misuse becomes more common. The Haryana Police is committed to fighting hate speech and maintaining order in society. The police have responded quickly to hate speech cases on social media, resolving about 87.87% of the registered matters effectively. Additionally, the police's crime branch monitors the activities of those who like or share posts from gangsters on platforms like X, Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube. These gangster posts can mislead young people and draw them into crime. To combat this, Haryana Police identify these youths, reach out to their families, and provide counseling to prevent them from getting involved in criminal activities.
