accountable in order to curb it down. It is important to have a mechanism which
evicts out fake news and contains only authentic news. With digitization, there
has been a drastic increase in the usage of some of the popular social media
sites such as Twitter, Facebook, Yahoo, YouTube as a medium of spreading
news. There is very little check on the spreading of fake news. Accountability,

across this network. The origin of data and every user interaction will be
recorded and get updated in the decentralized ledger and since it is in the
blockchain,
