Alt News - Fact-checking political and medical misinformation in India

Fact-check before you believe.

This fact-checking app by the Indian fact-checking website, Alt News, fact-checks misinformation viral on social media platforms in India.

The app will allow you to look-up images and videos against the database of stories that have already been fact-checked by Alt News and get instant fact-checks. For images/videos that have not been fact-checked yet, you'll get notifications as and when they get fact-checked.

We prioritise fact-checks based on the potential negative impact of the fake news. We do not fact-check frivolous content including viral memes, bollywood gossip and funny videos.
