Digital Desk: Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has come under fire for sharing a manipulated video of a speech by Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot as the state's elections approach.
Netizens have criticized this action, accusing CM Sarma of spreading fake information.
Initially, Laxmikant Bharadwaj, the BJP spokesperson, uploaded the video on 'X' which depicts Gehlot trying to deliver a speech, but constantly being disrupted by chants of "Modi Modi" in the background.
Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma shared the video on his X account with the caption that read, "मोदी जी का गारंटी - आएगा तो मोदी ही"
The original video, which does not mention Modi, was posted by independent fact-checker Mohammed Zubair, suggesting that the one shared by CM Sarma was deceptive or false.
Several leaders of the Congress party were quick to react, claiming that it was an attempt to mislead the public into believing that Gehlot lacks popularity and that the people of Rajasthan prefer Modi.
Additionally, several internet users have expressed their dissatisfaction with CM Sarma, saying that someone in such a prominent position should avoid spreading false information.
Another user raised concerns about the lack of action being taken against the Assam CM and Bharadwaj for sharing fake content.
