&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;LUCKNOW: &lt;/em&gt;Police on Saturday lodged an FIR against some IT companies on a complaint based on the sting operation by news portal &amp;quot;Cobrapost&amp;quot;, which claimed misuse of social media platforms in online campaigning for elections.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
The FIR was lodged by IPS officer Amitabh Thakur, who alleged that many IT companies were making &amp;quot;criminal&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;improper&amp;quot; use of social platforms like Facebook, Twitter, YouTube etc to sway the minds of common people and electorate hence to cheat them, police said.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
Cobrapost, in its sting, had claimed that IT companies were misusing social media platforms to artificially boost popularity of politicians and malign their rivals.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
The FIR also mentioned those companies managing media campaign for BJP&#039;s prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi, police said.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
It alleged that these companies create fake profiles and try to generate an impression on voters&#039; minds through false &amp;quot;likes&amp;quot; and fan following as well as negative comments for the opponents.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
In this way, they play with the basic tenets of Indian democracy and generate hate videos and messages, which, at times, even trigger riots, Thakur&#039;s FIR alleged.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
They use proxy codes on their computers, offshore IPs and servers to avoid tracing of the source, hack into the computers of other individuals and use internet-based messaging system to circumvent TRAI, the FIR alleged.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
The FIR was lodged under relevant sections of IPC, IT Act and Representation of People&#039;s Act.

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;LUCKNOW: &lt;/em&gt;Police on Saturday lodged an FIR against some IT companies on a complaint based on the sting operation by news portal &amp;quot;Cobrapost&amp;quot;, which claimed misuse of social media platforms in online campaigning for elections.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
The FIR was lodged by IPS officer Amitabh Thakur, who alleged that many IT companies were making &amp;quot;criminal&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;improper&amp;quot; use of social platforms like Facebook, Twitter, YouTube etc to sway the minds of common people and electorate hence to cheat them, police said.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
Cobrapost, in its sting, had claimed that IT companies were misusing social media platforms to artificially boost popularity of politicians and malign their rivals.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
The FIR also mentioned those companies managing media campaign for BJP&#039;s prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi, police said.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
It alleged that these companies create fake profiles and try to generate an impression on voters&#039; minds through false &amp;quot;likes&amp;quot; and fan following as well as negative comments for the opponents.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
In this way, they play with the basic tenets of Indian democracy and generate hate videos and messages, which, at times, even trigger riots, Thakur&#039;s FIR alleged.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
They use proxy codes on their computers, offshore IPs and servers to avoid tracing of the source, hack into the computers of other individuals and use internet-based messaging system to circumvent TRAI, the FIR alleged.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
The FIR was lodged under relevant sections of IPC, IT Act and Representation of People&#039;s Act.

&lt;em&gt;LUCKNOW: &lt;/em&gt;Police on Saturday lodged an FIR against some IT companies on a complaint based on the sting operation by news portal &amp;quot;Cobrapost&amp;quot;, which claimed misuse of social media platforms in online campaigning for elections.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
The FIR was lodged by IPS officer Amitabh Thakur, who alleged that many IT companies were making &amp;quot;criminal&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;improper&amp;quot; use of social platforms like Facebook, Twitter, YouTube etc to sway the minds of common people and electorate hence to cheat them, police said.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
Cobrapost, in its sting, had claimed that IT companies were misusing social media platforms to artificially boost popularity of politicians and malign their rivals.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
The FIR also mentioned those companies managing media campaign for BJP&#039;s prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi, police said.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
It alleged that these companies create fake profiles and try to generate an impression on voters&#039; minds through false &amp;quot;likes&amp;quot; and fan following as well as negative comments for the opponents.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
In this way, they play with the basic tenets of Indian democracy and generate hate videos and messages, which, at times, even trigger riots, Thakur&#039;s FIR alleged.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
They use proxy codes on their computers, offshore IPs and servers to avoid tracing of the source, hack into the computers of other individuals and use internet-based messaging system to circumvent TRAI, the FIR alleged.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
The FIR was lodged under relevant sections of IPC, IT Act and Representation of People&#039;s Act.
