A photograph showing a menu for the state banquet for Russian President Vladimir Putin, hosted at the Rashtrapati Bhavan by President Droupadi Murmu, is being shared on social media.
The claim: The photo, which shows several typographical errors on the menu, is being shared as a real photo of the menu displayed at the banquet.
Former Rajya Sabha MP Jawhar Sircar also shared the image on his verified X (formerly Twitter) account, taking a dig at the Rashtrapati Bhavan, asking why the menu was not printed "in Hindi or Gujarati?"
How did we find out?: A simple keyword search for the term 'Putin state banquet menu' on X led us to a post by news agency Press Trust of India (PTI).
It showed four pages of the menu of the state banquet, which carried all-vegetarian dishes for each course.
Page two of this post showed the photo which is being shared in the viral claim.

Newly launched Russia-based news organisation RT India's X account, too, shared the same set of images of the menu, which also did not carry any typographical errors.
Lastly, the RIA Kremlin Pool, which is a group of journalists covering the Kremlin, also shared the same image, without any spelling mistakes, on their Telegram channel.
Conclusion: An edited photo is being shared to claim that the menu for Russian President Vladimir Putin's state banquet was full of typographical errors.
