Mangaluru: Fake news about Yeddyurappa's heart attack goes viral


Daijiworld Media Network - Mangaluru (SP)

Mangaluru, Dec 19: A false news item claiming that former chief minister of Karnataka and state BJP chief, B S Yeddyurappa, had suffered heart attack and was hospitalized, had become viral since Monday December 18 evening. This news spread far and wide over social websites including WhatsApp.

It is said that Yeddyurappa has been tired of clarifying to his worried fans and well-wishers that he is hale and healthy.


Photos carried in the social media with fake news

When media persons questioned Yeddyurappa on Tuesday about this news item, he told them to find for themselves that he is fit and fine.

A false news generated by someone saying that Yeddyurappa, who was watching election results of Gujarat and Himachal Pradesh on television, had suddenly collapsed due to heart attack and that he had been hospitalized immediately, had caused flutters. The news item appeared along with photo of Yeddyurappa being cared for by medicos.

    When watching Gujarat & HP election results Yeddy saw that how BJP & Amit shah got HP chief minister candidate dhumal loose the election just because amit didn't want him to be the CM. Same fate awaits Yeddy, that's the reason of the attack.

    How many attacks on the Churches in Karnataka in September 2008 alone when he became the CM of Karnataka? He has to give due penalty. What a great fun time it was? Since Congress took control, how many Church attacks were recorded? Hardly any. For the survival-peace and prosperity of India, ultimately a Congress led Government has to take charge in New Delhi.

    See the dozens of smart cities-millions of jobs created-all the Chines factories in India-Rs. 15 lakh share of the black money; the massive bluffing of the electorate. To bluff the Hindus, Ram Temple. When the Ram Temple will be finished?

    Modi was flying around the world to see the world telling the electorate that trillions of dollars are going to land in India as Foreign Direct Investment. How many billions came so far? The attacks against the Christians were skyrocketed mainly in north India, but Modi has repeatedly visited the Christian nations hugging the beef eating Presidents and Prime Ministers. What a double actor of the 21st century?

    Pappu says he won morally ? What is the moral win in an election
    it is always take all by winner
    Why pappu silent about HP if khangress is on coming back mood
    how come they fared so poor in HP ? Any reasons for that shameful defeat?
    Better pappu watch chota bhim or Tom & Jerry and enjoy
