WHAT WE FOUND

We noticed that there was no mention of farmers or farm laws in the video. This raised our suspicion and we fragmented the video into multiple keyframes using the InVid Google Chrome extension.

Then we ran a reverse image search on one of the keyframes and found the same video uploaded on Facebook in January 2020, by a fan page of PM Modi, much before the ongoing farmers’ protest started.

We also found the same clip upload on a YouTube channel on 11 January 2020.

While The Quint hasn’t been able to independently verify the original source of the video, the fact that it has been in circulation for over a year proves that it has no connection with the ongoing farmers’ agitation.
