A part of Mallikarjun Kharge’s speech, in which he quoted the rivals claiming that the Congress party is finished, was shared online with a misleading context.
What is the claim?
The video circulating on social media claiming that Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge said, “Congress is over” during a 2024 Lok Sabha election rally was manipulated or taken out of context. In the video, Kharge is seen speaking in Hindi, purportedly stating, “Congress is finished. Congress is dead. And now you can’t see Congress anywhere,” when translated to English.
However, an investigation by Logically Facts revealed that Kharge’s video was edited and shared with a misleading context. The original video showed him quoting remarks made by rivals of the Congress party during a rally in Ahmedabad.
