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 🧵 Image
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.

Do read this important thread 🧵
As India voted in the months-long 7-phase election, @AltNews worked relentlessly to expose/document/report on political disinformation and hate speech used in poll campaign, and the election commission's failure to act on them.
On April 21, PM Narendra Modi delivered a speech in Rajasthan's Banswara and summarily addressed Muslims as 'infiltrators' and 'those who produced more children'. Alt News reported how Modi's speech was a textbook example of hate speech |

altnews.in/hate-speech-by…
In a detailed fact check, we also showed how PM Modi led the BJP's disinformation campaign against the Congress manifesto. Calling it the manifesto of the Muslim League, he set off a series of false claims that would be repeated by BJP leaders |

In Purnia, Bihar, A newly married girl Vandana Kumari was strangled to death and her body was hung in her house by her ex-boyfriend Shelendra Kumar. He later confessed to his crime after arrest.
You'll hardly see any News Agencies or Channels covering this because there is no Hindu-Muslim angle to this. Neither did this happen in States ruled by opposition.

A 30-year-old woman Praviya was stabbed with a knife and later burnt to death by her Ex-boyfriend on the Kodumunda coastal road near Pattambi. Her wedding was scheduled for April 29. According to reports, The accused Santhosh, a native of Aloor died by suicide after the attack.
The Pro Govt Propaganda News Agency @ANI or National Media isn't interested in reporting this incident because there is no Hindu-Muslim angle to this.Image
In Kanpur. A husband stabbed his wife Gunjan Goutam repeatedly and killed her, after killing his wife, Shiva Gupta locked the room and fled to his native village Raebareli.

This incident happened two days back. Did you see any news reports by @smitaprakash's News Agency @ANI or any National News Channels or tweets by News Anchors or outrage by RW? No. Because this incident happened in the BJP ruled state UP and there is no Hindu-Muslim angle to this.

Thread 🧵
A lot of RW accounts are finally trying to Fact Check @dhruv_rathee for his video on how BJP encashed Electoral Bonds purchased by a Beef Export company Allana groups.

For the context, Before Fact checking Dhruv's and Khan Sir's video, Let's go back to 2012-2015 and see a few videos of @narendramodi speaking against Export of 'GouMaas' ( Cow Meat) and incidentally, during the same time, Received donation of ₹ 2.2 Crore in 2013-14 and ₹50 Lakh in 2014-15 from a Beef Export company Allana groups.
Did you know, In BJP election rallies, CM Narendra Modi, spoke several times about 'Pink Revolution' ( Gulabi Kranti). In his speeches, He spoke about how the Congress Govt was giving subsidies to the butcher House which exported 'GouMaas' ( Cow Meet).

Wait.. Did we ever officially export GouMaas ( Cow meat) to foreign countries?. It was always Buffalo meat which is also referred to as Beef or Carabeef. Wasn't this a misleading claim by Narendra Modi in 2012?
In 2014 election rally in Bihar, He repeats the same lie about Cow meat (Beef) getting exported. Cow meat was never exported. It was always the buffalo meat.

'Yadi mera Kisaan ya Yaduvanshi bhai, Gai paalna chahe toh use subsidy nahi dete, magar Gai Kaatne walo ko Subsidy deti hai'.

Shazia, A student from @GalgotiasGU schools the News Anchor that Media's job is NOT just to report what the Govt says, But to Fact Check too. 🙂

After a speech at #E4MSummit 2024 by @e4mtweets, Sudhir Chaudhary takes a few questions from the University students in the audience.
Shazia questions Sudhir Chaudhary about misinformation by the Media, Gives an example of the recent @BJP4India's Election ad campaign "Modi ji ne War Rukwa di papa, aur fir humari bus nikali papa".
To which @sudhirchaudhary in the end says: This was because the Opposition didn't like this (Propaganda?), Let's suppose if there was no opposition, People would have praised the PM for stopping the Ukraine way.
What if your father had stopped the war, Wouldn't you be happy?"

To which Shazia interrupts : “If the war had actually stopped, But it didn't”
By the way, It's International #FactCheckingDay today.
Full video at the end of this thread.
Question by Shazia: There was a recent BJP ad campaign, in the campaign, they showed PM Modi stopped the war in Ukraine so that students from India could be rescued. But we also saw several videos of students there which were contradicting this Statement. This misinformation was also run by several News channels including @aajtak, Don't you think the Media is amplifying such misinformation to the public?
While answering her question of misinformation by Indian media, @sudhirchaudhary indulges in more misinformation. He says The govt had confirmed this news about "War Rukwa Di papa" and the media reported it. Says Media's work is to report, To which Shazia interrupts and says, Not just report but to also Fact Check. 😄

But the statement from @MEAIndia was that it's completely inaccurate news.
