A video of Union Home Minister Amit Shah is being circulated to claim that he recently disrespected former Chief Ministers of Jharkhand, Champai Soren and Babulal Marandi, during a public event.
What did the video show?: In the 26-seconds-long clip, Shah could be heard saying, “Babulal come forward, Dineshananda come forward, Champai come forward, Champai, Oo, come forward.”
Who shared it?: Congress party’s Social Media Chairperson Supriya Shrinate shared the video with a caption in Hindi that said, “Such an insult! Just because the people you are calling are tribals. Amit Shah, why are you so irritated with the tribals?”
Shrinate’s post had gained over eight lakh views on the platform. You can view archives of similar claims here, here, and here.
What are the facts?: The video has been altered to remove the portion, where Shah could be seen addressing the two former CMs as “Champai Ji” and “Babulal Ji.”
