Challenges we ran into

We ran into a few challenges during the building process. We wanted to make realtime system for the problem statement using twitter API , but it couldn't be possible due to not having access to it. The solution was to scrape it in realtime and multithreaded to able to do it. Also the factual checking was difficult hence we had to have discussions with our mentor to get some idea on how we can approach it & we did implement it successfully.
