Srinagar, Sep 11: Amid growing concern over misuse of social media, the Govt. College for Women (GCW) MA Road, Srinagar has issued a public notice warning students, parents, and stakeholders about fake handles using the college’s name and logo to post objectionable content.

GCW College spokesperson in a statement said that the college administration issued a public notice warning students, parents, and other stakeholders about fake social media handles that are misusing the college's name and logo to post objectionable content.

"These handles have been found to be operating independently, without any affiliation to the institution," the statement reads.

 The college authorities have assured that they will take strict legal action against those found to be behind these fake handles. 

"This includes reporting the matter to law enforcement agencies and pursuing action under applicable cyber laws," the college spokesperson said.

The college has urged everyone to be cautious and refrain from engaging with these fake handles.

Examples of pages that may be operating with potentially mischievous intent using the college's name include @womenscollegevlogs, @womens_college_official, @womenscollegeconfessions998, and @confession.womens.collage.sgr.

The college has emphasized that these handles are not officially affiliated with the historic institution which happens to be completing 75 years this year.

To ensure that students and stakeholders receive authentic information, the college has requested that they follow only the official social media handles.

"The official handles will always provide accurate and reliable information," said the college spokesperson.

The college has also set up a reporting mechanism for fake handles.

"Anyone who encounters suspicious handles can report them to the principal's email at principal@gcwmaroad.edu.in," the spokesperson added.

The college administration has assured prompt action in addressing these issues.
