Uttarakhand Police will also scrutinize the records of the person on social media at the time of passport application, arms license, and job verification.

Dehradun. Most people post posts on social media without thinking, but in this case, now the people of Uttarakhand need to be vigilant. Unknowingly, anti-national and anti-social remarks can put you in trouble in the future and you may have to face difficulties. Let us tell you that at the time of verification in the Uttarakhand Police Passport Application and Arms License, the person’s record will be scrutinized on social media as well and the application will be rejected if it is found to be true. Not only this, but you may also face problems at the time of applying for a job. In this regard, Uttarakhand DGP Ashok Kumar has given strict instructions to all police officers.

It is often seen that many people post anti-nationals on social media such as Facebook, Twitter, and WhatsApp, which are now taking strict steps to curb them. Uttarakhand Police will now take more strict action against those who post on social media. Although earlier only a case was filed under the IT Act, now if someone writes something against the country on social media, then it can be very heavy for them. Not only this, the police can deny such posters from passports to arms licenses and jobs.

DGP Ashok Kumar said this
DGP Ashok Kumar told that if anyone applies for a passport or arms license, then the report of his social media account will also be given. Earlier, only information about registered cases was given. If any such post or comment has been made by him, it will be recommended to cancel his application by putting a negative report on it. Instructions have been given to all police officers in this direction. This clearly shows that now Uttarakhand Police will take strong action against the anti-national elements.
