“There has been a deliberate attempt to falsely associate HYDRA with the recent demolitions along the Musi River. We want to make it clear that HYDRA was not involved in these actions.
Ranganath warned that legal action would be taken against anyone intentionally spreading false propaganda against HYDRA.
He urged the media and the public to seek clarification on which department is responsible for specific demolitions before disseminating information.
“We request that before any news is promoted or published, proper clarification is obtained regarding which department carried out the demolitions. Spreading misinformation only creates unnecessary confusion and panic among the public,” he remarked.
