Here's how a News channel shares a fake news based on a clipped video. It was later picked up and amplified by BJP members and Right wing Influencial accounts. Soon after it went viral, It was again picked up by other News channels which has it's own fact checking team. Thread 👇
It was first shared by a reporter from Navbharat Times reporter @_ShivamBhatt ( When someone says it might be fake, He goes in to justify with his whataboutery). It was soon published by his channel @UPNBT
How can Right Wing propaganda website @OpIndia_com hold back and not do a story based on fake news. 🤡🤡
Altnews got in touch with Bitur SP candidate Munindra Shukla who shared us the longer version of the video. It can clearly be heard that the supporters were saying "Maati chor bhagana hai" and not "Pakistan Banana hai".
They claim, 'Maati (Sand) chor' was in refrence to BJP MLA
It was also clarified by Kanpur Admin that there were no Pro Pakistan Slogans raised.
Several Right Wing trolls like @MrSinha_ @rishibagree @HPhobiaWatch @ChandanSharmaG etc are sharing a screenshot of Bittu Sharma @common000786Om and claiming it's a fake ID created by a Muslim. They can't digest a Hindu Brahmin speaking against the BJP.
Let's Fact check.
In Dec 2023, Bittu Sharma had donated to Altnews. When I checked for more details, I found his email id and Phone number on our donation website. When I searched for his phone number on Truecaller and WhatsApp, His name was displayed as Bittu Sharma on both.
I later called him up to enquire about the other handle which used his image. He shared an email he received from Twitter support after he reported the fake account @anchalfortango. The fake account which used his image was later suspended after he reported on July 8th.
If any of Anti BJP accounts had gone for a debate with this Pakistani YouTuber, The same right wing gang would have declared them as Pro-Pakistan, Anti-India gang.
Here are a few tweets by @Arzookazmi30 baaji mocking Indian Airforce which I am sure right wing trolls like @MrSinha_ @vijaygajera will forgive.
More Anti-India, Anti-Army Tweets by @Arzookazmi30 which @MrSinha_ @vijaygajera want their Nationalist followers to ignore.
A few more Anti Modi tweets by @Arzookazmi30 baaji.
A lot of Indian Right wing accounts are spreading communal propaganda.
Here are images of local Muslims stepping in to protect the temples in Bangladesh.
More images of Local Muslims safeguarding Temples. #BangladeshBleeding #BangladeshViolence
Hello @elonmusk @XEng, You had promised to remove all the bot accounts from @X. But there are millions of Bot accounts still following PM Modi. Here are a few bot accounts created in 2013 or because only and only to follow PM Modi and nothing else. I am sure there are millions of such accounts.
This 2024 election gave hope to many that a strong opposition would speak up to protect democracy and the dignity of marginalised communities.
Long Thread 🧵
People supporting the opposition believed that the opposition would speak for them. Muslims who voted for your parties were hopeful that the results would stop the wave of Islamophobia.
Dalit and Adivasis who supported you, wanted you to speak for their rights.
Secular Hindus who supported you, campaigned for you on and offline during the 2024 election did that for a stronger democracy and against the ideology of the RSS and BJP.
Let's debunk the propaganda by @smitaprakash's Agency & @ians_india who claimed "Delhi Women staged a protest demanding payment of Rs 1000 promised by the AAP govt."
These BJP woman who organised this protest were later seen celebrating at McDonald's.
The Woman recording the protest is Pooja Maini Chadha. She can be seen going in a bus to the protesting site. Here @smitaprakash hides Pooja's BJP association because she wants to mislead her viewers to think the protesters are not associated with the BJP.
The Woman in the protest is Krishna Sharma. In the Video shared by Smita Prakash's agency, Here, BJP leader Krishna Sharma can be seen pushing the police barricade and protest demanding Rs. 1K from AAP govt. Wonder why @smitaprakash hid this from her viewers.
