New Delhi/IBNS: India's business icon and Chairman Emeritus of the Tata Group Ratan Tata on Sunday rejected yet another social media post message, which has gone viral online and attributed to him as fake.

He urged people to verify news sources.

I’m afraid this too, has not been said by me. I will endeavour to call out fake news whenever I can, but would encourage you to always verify news sources. My picture alongside a quote does not guarantee me having said it, a problem that many people face. pic.twitter.com/pk0S75FxPA

He shared the post on his Twitter handle and wrote: "I’m afraid this too, has not been said by me. I will endeavour to call out fake news whenever I can, but would encourage you to always verify news sources. My picture alongside a quote does not guarantee me having said it, a problem that many people face."

He had faced similar troubles in the past as well and then too he had posted a message on social media to confirm that it was not said or written by him.

This post has neither been said, nor written by me. I urge you to verify media circulated on WhatsApp and social platforms. If I have something to say, I will say it on my official channels. Hope you are safe and do take care. pic.twitter.com/RNVL40aRTB
