REALITY: THE MESSENGER SERVICE IS NOT INDIAN!
Smartphone users across the country received a message that urged them to boycott American messenger service -- WhatsApp. It also suggested use of another app - Telegram, billed as the ‘first Indian social media application’. Thousands of people switched to Telegram to become a part of the ‘swadeshi mission’. But then came a shocker when users came to know that the message propagating ‘Telegram’ was fake and that the app was not Indian.
