Abstract
Fake news, which is defined as purposefully false or misleading information spread to deceive, has grown to be a significant issue on a global scale. In regions such as Manipur, India, where ethnic or sectarian clashes are well-known, fake news has the potential to intensify hostilities. The clashes that erupted in Manipur in 2023 between the Kuki and Meitei communities offer an interesting case study for thinking about the moral ramifications of misleading information. This research looks at the effects of false information on society, the moral quandaries it poses, and the ways in which fake news has fuelled the war. Information that has been manipulated to mimic news media content without following journalistic ethics or standards is known as fake news. Propaganda, satire, parody, fabrication, manipulation, and advertisement are just a few of the ways it might appear; the veracity and purpose of each form varies. Democratic countries face serious issues as a result of the widespread spread of fake news on digital platforms, which lacks editorial control and distorts public opinion while undermining confidence in credible media sources. Social media has made it easier for fake news to propagate quickly in Manipur. Users may be largely exposed to material that confirmed their beliefs due to the echo chamber effect caused by the viral nature of fake news and social media algorithms. Fake news that looked and felt like real news increased ethnic and political tensions, which led to social upheaval and widespread violence. Fake news has ethical repercussions that include eroding public confidence, dividing communities, and warping public opinion. False information being spread during the Manipur war has resulted in moral conundrums, such as the deterioration of moral standards, the escalation of violence, and the manipulation of public opinion.
