#Pakistan has been running #socialmedia propaganda against #India using fake Arab, Christian and Hindu identities to target Prime Minister #NarendraModi's government.

Security agencies and independent social media users after investigation found that the recent hashtags like #Islamophia_in_India on #Twitter, were mostly sourced to bots, trolls and people in Pakistan.

The idea was to bombard #socialmedia with content to generate anti-Modi sentiment in Gulf countries and create a wedge between #India and its allies in the #MiddleEast, sources said.

In one of the cases, a Twitter account which was initially @pak_fauj had changed it to @SayyindaMona and used profile picture of an Arab Mona Bint Fahd Al Saeed @MonaFahad13. Hundreds of bots were liking and retweeting this handle's anti-India content.
