Social media is an ocean of misinformation. Here without verifying the credibility of the information and news, it cannot be considered true. Hundreds of posts are made here every day to spread hatred and most of these posts are fake, false, and misleading.
Nowadays a picture is going viral on social media. Those sharing this photo are claiming that the idol of Lord Nandi has been found in the excavation of the mosque or tomb. In this viral picture, it can be seen that a white building, which is being told as a mosque or a tomb, has an idol of Nandi at the carved site.
One user wrote while posting – “This is the truth of every Mazar Masjid.” With the same claim, this tweet has been shared by many users on Twitter.
