The MCA is a cross industry collaborative effort set up with the objective of combatting and limiting the spread of misinformation through targeted interventions and activities.
Misinformation is eroding trust in media and institutions, creating unrest among different sections and communities of society; putting law, order, and public safety at risk, and is also impacting the health of individuals across the country. This problem cannot be solved by any single person or organization alone. There needs to be a collaborative effort addressing India’s unique predicament to create a more enlightened and aware digital society. This is where the MCA comes in.
