Mon Apr 07 17:48:19 UTC 2025: ## Union Minister Deletes AI-Generated Image Amidst Telangana Land Dispute
**Hyderabad, April 7, 2025** – Union Minister G. Kishan Reddy has deleted a social media post featuring an AI-generated image related to the controversial Kancha Gachibowli land acquisition in Telangana. The image, depicting distressed peacocks and deer fleeing bulldozers, was widely circulated before being revealed as fabricated. The Telangana government had previously approached the High Court to address the spread of AI-generated images and doctored videos concerning the land dispute, seeking action against those sharing them online. Following the Minister’s removal of the post, Ayodhya Reddy, Chief Public Relations Officer for Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy, re-shared the deleted image, suggesting the Minister had acknowledged the image’s inaccuracy. The incident highlights the growing concern over the use of AI-generated content in spreading misinformation.
