Fake news says 3rd blue tick to show if govt reads WhatsApp message

A fake news of WhatsApp introducing a third blue tick for chats being read by the government is doing rounds online. However, WhatsApp chats are end-to-end encrypted and no third-party can read the chats. WhatsApp, which is dealing with fake news crisis, said last week it is limiting forwarding messages to only five chats at once in India.
