Some people in India are making fake videos about harassment and rape. They do this to get likes and attention on social media. These videos are not true, but they look serious. Now, some Indian men are speaking out. They are making their own videos to say this is wrong.
In the new videos, men hold signs with messages. The signs say things like “Stop fake harassment reels.” They are calm and serious. They want people to stop making fake stories about crimes. They say fake videos hurt real victims. When someone lies, it becomes harder to trust people who are truly in pain. It also makes men scared of being blamed for something they didn’t do.
Men have started trolling & exposing women who make fake harassment/molestation/rape reels just to get likes.

It's time for men to stand up against this war on fake narratives of females because the Indian legal system (police, judiciary etc) & law makers (politicians,… https://t.co/PzMgP90MAG pic.twitter.com/fGg38CtmcK
India has strong laws to protect women. These laws are important. But when people make false claims, it causes problems. The police and courts already have a lot of work. Fake cases make things worse. Some people think the system is afraid to punish women who lie. They say leaders and officers don’t speak up because they fear backlash.
Many people support the men. They say it is good to speak the truth. They believe both men and women should be honest. If someone lies about a crime, they should be punished. But some people are worried. They say talking too much about fake cases may stop real victims from speaking up. They fear women who are truly hurt may stay silent. Social media is a big part of this issue. Apps like Instagram and YouTube give more likes to shocking videos. Some people make fake videos to become famous.
But social media also helps people fight back. The men are using it to share their message. They want others to think before believing everything online. India needs better rules for online videos. Serious topics like rape and harassment should not be used for fun or fame. Social media companies should check videos before they go viral.
The law should also work better. Real victims need help fast. People who lie should be punished. Everyone should be treated fairly. This fight is not against women. It is against lies. Real victims need support. Fake stories must stop. The men speaking out want truth and fairness. In India, where many people face problems, this talk is important. It shows that every voice matters, but every voice must be honest.
