தான் சொகுசு குஷன் சோஃபாவில் அமர்ந்துகொண்டு, குடியரசு துணைத் தலைவரை பிளாஸ்டிக் நாற்காலியில் உட்கார வைத்த மத்திய உள்துறை அமைச்சர் அமித்ஷா என்று ஒரு புகைப்படம் சமூக ஊடகங்களில் வைரலாக பகிரப்பட்டு வருகிறது.

Publisher’s rating: ஃபேக்ட் கிரஸண்டோ ரேட்டிங்: FALSE

The review identifies the image as a photograph from a 2019 meeting, not a recent event involving Radhakrishnan as Vice President. It says the photo was taken before Amit Shah became Home Minister and before Radhakrishnan became Vice President.

காங்கிரஸ் கட்சியுடன் ஏற்பட்ட அதிருப்தி காரணமாக தனது மனைவியுடன் பிரதமர் நரேந்திர மோடியை சந்தித்த ஜார்கண்ட் முதலமைச்சர் ஹேமந்த் சோரன் என்று ஒரு புகைப்படம் சமூக ஊடகங்களில் வைரலாக பகிரப்பட்டு வருகிறது.

The viral photo does not show a recent meeting prompted by discontent with Congress. The review says it was taken on November 26, 2024, after Soren won the Jharkhand assembly election and before he took office; he had invited Modi to his swearing-in ceremony.

The video shows Samajwadi Party legislators attacking BJP MLAs inside the Uttar Pradesh Assembly on 16 December 1993, soon after Mulayam Singh Yadav became Chief Minister.

Publisher’s rating: FALSE

The footage is from the Uttar Pradesh Assembly on 21 October 1997, during a trust vote faced by the BJP government led by Kalyan Singh—not from 16 December 1993. The review says Mulayam Singh Yadav was not Chief Minister at the time of the footage and was serving as Union Defence Minister.

The video shows President Droupadi Murmu speaking about restrictions on individual freedoms, secularism, and the challenges faced by minority communities in India on Constitution Day.

Publisher’s rating: FALSE

FACTLY reports that the viral video pairs footage from President Murmu’s Constitution Day address with AI-generated audio; it says the alleged remarks do not appear in the original speech transcript. The review also reports that PIB Fact Check debunked the video on 27 November 2025.

The viral video shows bulldozers demolishing buildings in Bihar after the NDA government came to power in 2025.

Publisher’s rating: MISLEADING

FACTLY reports that the viral video combines clips available online before the NDA government took office in Bihar on 20 November 2025, and concludes the video is unrelated to the state’s recent anti-encroachment drives. The review says the first set of clips was part of an AAP protest campaign, while the temple-demolition clips were also online before the new government formed.
