New Delhi: Meta-owned Instagram gives users who have verified their accounts a blue tick, or as the company likes to put it, a “verified badge.” This symbol helps users differentiate between fake and real accounts of brands, celebrities and other users on the platform. Instagram specifically states that blue ticks should not be interpreted as “a symbol showing importance, authority, or competence of the subject area.”
Listed below are the steps you can take to verify your Instagram account now. Keep in mind that simply applying does not guarantee that you will receive a verified badge. ,Also read: Cyrus Mistry: 5 Important Facts To Know About Former Tata Group Chairman,
