VERDICT

FALSE

Police officer kicking and knocking down a female sanitation worker: Here is the reality behind the image

SOURCES / EVIDENCE

A message claiming that every Indian citizen will receive ₹10,000 every month from October 2026 is circulating widely on social media.

The post includes a graphic that appears to show an official government announcement. It asks users to register through a link to receive the monthly payment.

However, there is no official government announcement confirming such a scheme.

A search of official government communication channels does not support the claim. The viral graphic also does not provide a genuine government notification number, department reference or verifiable official source.

Users should therefore avoid clicking on registration links shared with the viral post, especially if they ask for personal or banking information.

What We Found

The viral claim is false. No credible evidence was found to support the claim that the Government of India has announced a ₹10,000 monthly payment for every citizen.

The graphic circulating online appears to be misleading and should not be treated as an official government notification.
