AI leopard video and ₹500 note ban rumour exposed as fake

Social media was flooded with misleading claims, including an AI-generated video of leopard attacking train passengers in Maharashtra, a false rumour about ₹500 notes being withdrawn and a viral clip linked to protests in Venezuela. Fact checks confirmed the leopard video was fake, RBI made no ₹500 note-ban announcement and protest footage was actually from Philippines, not Venezuela.
