மத்திய பட்ஜெட்டை நிதியமைச்சர் நிர்மலா சீதாராமன் தாக்கல் செய்துள்ள நிலையில் “பட்ஜெட்டில் புதிதாக எதுவும் இல்லை. விலை உயர்வு, வரி உயர்வு தான் உள்ளது” என்று அண்ணாமலை கூறியதாக ஒரு வீடியோ சமூக ஊடகங்களில் பகிரப்பட்டு வருகிறது.

Original review summary

The video does show Annamalai saying that the budget had nothing new and included price and tax increases. However, the review finds that the clip was taken from his criticism of the 2022 Tamil Nadu budget and edited to make it appear he was criticizing the 2024 Union budget.[S1]

Additional context

The Union budget was presented on July 23, 2024, while the reviewed interview was posted by ABP Nadu on March 9, 2022. [S1]
