The claim
A drone show in China displayed PM Modi’s face along with messages such as “Modi Welcome To China” and “vote chor, gaddhi chod.”
Original review summary
The review says the images were altered: Modi’s face and the messages were digitally added to photos of a cultural drone performance. It reports that the original images showed a display in Chongqing and that there was no official confirmation of a drone show for Modi’s visit.[S1]
Additional context
The review identifies the source display as a cultural performance held in Chongqing on 19 April 2025, months before Modi’s visit on 30 August 2025. [S1]
