The claim
The video depicts genuine footage of Dharmendra Pradhan stating that he was forced to resign and threatening to expose the BJP.
Original review summary
FACTLY found the video was fabricated, using an AI-generated voice clone over existing footage; it reported that Pradhan made no such statements after his resignation. The review says the anchor footage came from an NDTV video uploaded on 26 July 2026, while Pradhan’s visuals came from a May 2026 press conference about the NEET paper leak and re-exam.[S1]
