The Nagaland State Disaster Management Authority (NSDMA), Home Department has observed the circulation of a weather advisory graphic titled “Nagaland Weather Advisory: March 25–29” on social media and other platforms using NSDMA data but displaying an incorrectly generated district map, resulting in misleading information.
While the weather-related information contained in the circulated post appears to be derived from official NSDMA sources, the district mapping and visual representation were generated inaccurately, resulting in a misleading depiction of affected areas. The map shown in the circulated graphic are inaccurate and does not reflect the official assessment or communication issued by NSDMA, Home Department.
The general public is hereby informed that the circulation of altered or unofficial weather-related information, including incorrectly generated maps or graphics in the name of the Nagaland State Disaster Management Authority (NSDMA), Home Department, constitutes misinformation and may lead to confusion regarding risk areas and public safety preparedness. Citizens are therefore advised to exercise due caution and refrain from creating, sharing, or forwarding any such unverified materials, and to rely only on official advisories and updates issued through the verified communication channels of the Nagaland State Disaster Management Authority and the Government of Nagaland.
For accurate, real-time alerts and verified weather updates, citizens are strongly encouraged to download and use the Safer Nagaland App.
