Abstract
The purpose of this study is to investigate the various aspects of digital deception, with a particular focus on the psychological, social, and political repercussions as they pertain to the Indian context. The research makes use of a mixed-methods approach, which blends qualitative analysis derived from literature reviews and case studies with statistical data obtained from a structured public survey. The key findings indicate that there is a significant shortage of public knowledge; a large number of individuals lack the confidence to recognise and combat incorrect information that can be found on the internet. The sections point that is brought up in the report is the role that social media websites play in the rapid dissemination of false information, as well as the deficiencies of the existing legal and institutional solutions. When compared with practices from around the world, comparative research highlights the urgent need for coordinated responses, which may include changes to regulations, initiatives to improve digital literacy, and efforts to collaborate internationally. At the end of the study, there are certain policy recommendations that are possible. These recommendations are intended to raise institutional resilience and improve public preparation against attacks of disinformation.
