Claim: irrelevant video shared as magnificent appearance of the Ajodhya ram temple

Publisher’s rating: ஃபேக்ட் கிரஸண்டோ ரேட்டிங்: FALSE

Fact Crescendo’s review found that the video shared as the magnificent appearance of the Ayodhya Ram temple was a 3D animation made by an individual, not footage or an animation released by the temple administration. It says the animation had been posted on YouTube on November 3, 2021, and differed from the administration’s 3D preview.

Paus Franciscus heeft het WEF gevraagd de Bijbel te factchecken en herschrijven.

Publisher’s rating: De bewering is afkomstig van een website die gekend is voor het verspreiden van nepnieuws, die zich op een anonieme bron baseert en is volledig uit de lucht gegrepen.

The review says the claim originated with The People's Voice and relied on an anonymous “WEF insider.” The WEF spokesperson told dpa that the story was untrue and that the organisation had no project to rewrite the Bible.
