A social media notice claiming a 'war lockdown notice' has gone viral, only to be revealed as an April Fools' prank. The notice features a jester's image with 'April Fool' written on it once opened, and an image of India's national emblem with 'Satyamev Jayate' written.
The notice is circulating amid the ongoing war between Iran and the United States, backed by Israel, and comes just days after the term 'lockdown in India 2026' featured on Google trends.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi will reportedly chair a key meeting of the Cabinet Committee on Security (CCS) today, in Delhi, to discuss the ongoing situation in West Asia.
