ISRO cautions against forged social media profiles of ISRO

Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has cautioned against forged social media profiles floated in the name of ISRO or Department of Space.
It is observed that a number of pages in the social media (Facebook and Twitter) are floated in the name of ISRO/ Department of Space/ Mangalyaan, and others, which have no authenticity and ISRO does not take any responsibility for any content hosted on these pages, ISRO in a release said.
It said such impersonation of the organisation is construed to be a serious offence and stern legal action against these pages / administrators of these pages are being initiated from ISRO/ Department of Space to bring them to immediate closure.

ISRO started an official page on Facebook titled 'ISRO's Mars Orbit Mission' (facebook.Com/isromom) on October 22, 2013, to provide near real time authentic information about the programme.
