Union I&B Minister Rajyavardhan Rathore today exhorted netizens to be “soldiers” by not forwarding “malicious” content circulated by “enemies” on social media.
“You need not wear the uniform to be a soldier of this country, you need not go to the borders now, because the enemy can actually strike in your home (through social media).
All you have to do is be aware and not forward any malicious content or anything that you are not aware of and actually be a soldier by preventing forwarding of such information,” he said.
The Minister made the remark at the inaugural session of ‘Women Economic Forum’ here in response to a question on cyber stalking of women.
