- Daw News is at it again – Another day, another fake news.

No easy way out this time – Punjab Govt to take legal action against Dawn on Fake News
Govt of Punjab as recently tweeted about taking legal action against Dawn News. It comes out as a result of a fake statement attributed to the Chief Minister Punjab Usman Buzdar.
Here is what the Govt of Punjab official account has tweeted:
It is sad and unfortunate that in these testing times some people find the opportunity to publish their imagination as news. Statement attributed to CM Punjab in @dawn_com‘s article is absolutely rubbish, baseless & fake
GoP is starting legal action against writer & publisher 1/2— Government of Punjab (@GOPunjabPK) March 19, 2020
for their irresponsible and unprofessional behavior and we also urge #APNS and regulatory bodies to take strict action, as we cannot allow anyone to create panic and push their ulterior agendas in these testing times. 2/2

This what Dawn’s Journalist/Writer has claimed [which apparently is fake news]

At a time when the nation needs to be united, Dawn continues to spread propaganda. This is not the first time Dawn has come up with fake News. Not only Dawn but PTI Govt has been under severe attacks of fake news since the formation of their Government.
Here we have a few examples of other fake news against PTI Govt; take a look:
- Govt of Punjab responds to the #FakeNews regarding LTC buses.
- The Patwari system in Punjab is not coming back. Another #FakeNews busted
- Asad Kharal has been fined Rs. 500,000 for spreading #FakeNews
- #FakeNews regarding the licensing of Web TV

These were just a few examples we could cover in one blog post. There are dozens of other fake news on a weekly basis from the mainstream media channels.
