A 56-second video is circulating on social media showing Rahul Gandhi addressing a public meeting. In the video, he says, "Narendra Modi will remain the Prime Minister of India." He also declared on June 4 that Modi will continue in his current position. Additionally, he stated that their alliance will not win a single seat in Uttar Pradesh.
Social media users shared the video with the caption: “राहुल गांधी जी की बात एकदम सही है। "आएंगे तो मोदी जी ही रहेंगे तो मोदी जी ही बात खत्म।"
In English, it reads: “Rahul Gandhi's statement is absolutely correct. It will be only Modi who will win and it will be only Modi to remain. There ends the matter.”
Fact Check: We found the claim to be false. The video was edited and shared on social media. In the original video, Rahul Gandhi is saying that Narendra Modi will no longer be the Prime Minister after.
June 4. In his speech, Rahul also said that their alliance will not get less than 50 seats in Uttar Pradesh.
During the reverse image search, we found that the Indian National Congress (INC) posted the original video alongside the viral one, comparing them to show which is authentic and which is fake.
While listening to the speech, we found Rahul saying that their alliance will not get less than 50 seats in UP. While reviewing Rahul Gandhi's public meeting in UP, we matched a frame in Kanpur public meeting.
At the 47:33 timestamp, we found Rahul Gandhi's statement: "On June 4, 2024, Narendra Modi will not be the Prime Minister of India." He also stated, "Our alliance is going to get not less than 50 seats in Uttar Pradesh."
We also found with a caption Rahul Gandhi re-posted the video shared by the INC “‘झूठ की फैक्ट्री’ भाजपा खुद को कितना भी दिलासा दे ले, कोई फर्क नहीं पड़ने वाला। एक बार फिर कह रहा हूं - 4 जून के बाद नरेंद्र मोदी प्रधानमंत्री नहीं रहेंगे। देश के हर कोने में INDIA की आंधी चल रही है”।
No matter how much the 'factory of lies' BJP consoles itself, it is not going to make any difference. I am saying it again - Narendra Modi will no longer be the Prime Minister after June 4. The storm of INDIA is blowing in every corner of the country.
The same video was also shared by INC Bihar, INC Uttarakhand, INC Delhi, and many other INC state officials to bring the truth out.
As per the article published in Hindustan Times “Senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Friday asserted that an INDIA bloc storm was arriving in Uttar Pradesh and the ruling BJP was going to face its worst- ever defeat on June 4, the day votes are counted after conclusion of the ongoing Lok Sabha polls on June 1”.
Hence, it is clear that the video has been edited & being circulated with a false claim. In the original video, Rahul Gandhi is saying that Narendra Modi will no longer be the Prime Minister after June 4. In his speech, Rahul also said that their alliance will not get less than 50 seats in Uttar Pradesh.
