A 21 September Instagram reel contrasts criticism of educator Khan Sir with footage of his Bihar flood-relief work. Independent reporting supports his participation in boat-based aid distribution and a reported large relief convoy during floods affecting about 49.74 lakh people across 15 districts; the scale of his operation is not independently audited, and neither the…

No comments on Khan Sir’s Bihar flood-relief videos document private aid during a disaster affecting nearly 50 lakh people; PR motive remains unproven
A May 7 Instagram reel presented a Champawat gang-rape allegation involving BJP leader Puran Singh Rawat as fact. Subsequent police findings disputed the allegation and described a separate alleged conspiracy; political opponents contested that conclusion.

INC Bihar’s 17 September 2026 reel contrasts a Rahul Gandhi birthday job fair with Narendra Modi birthday lamp-lighting celebrations. Both underlying events are documented, but the job fair was in June 2025 and advertised 5,000-plus opportunities rather than verified hires; the juxtaposition shows competing political symbolism around employment and celebration, not a like-for-like measure of…

An Instagram reel contrasts Bihar’s 17 September 2026 Deepotsav for Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s birthday with floods affecting 49.67 lakh people across 15 districts. Both events are independently supported, and the overlap raises a public-interest question about official priorities during a disaster; the reel alone does not prove that the celebration caused relief failures or…
A 29 August 2026 Instagram reel defends Congress by invoking the four dhams, 12 Jyotirlingas and other Hindu temples amid the current Ram-temple donation dispute. The sites and traditions long predate modern party politics; while later governments and patrons have funded restoration and infrastructure, the evidence does not support attributing their creation to Congress. The…

A WhattsViral India graphic attributes to Ashneer Grover the claim that ₹22,000 crore linked to Subhash Chandra could have funded free UPI for 20 years. The comparison is misleading: the ₹22,006.57 crore figure concerns admitted claims in Chandra’s personal-guarantor insolvency process, not a demonstrated pot of government revenue, while UPI funding and MDR are separate…
Amit Beyond Limits juxtaposes a Kanpur celebration for Narendra Modi’s birthday and 25 years in public office with the city’s damaged roads. Contemporary reporting independently confirms both the large Motijheel celebration and serious pothole/repair problems, but the reel does not prove that celebration spending was diverted from roads or that one caused the other.

An Instagram reel criticises Modi birthday diyas in Patna during Bihar’s floods and says huge quantities of edible oil were wasted. The mass lamp campaign and flood context are documented, as are Modi’s calls to cut edible-oil use, but available evidence supports about 25,000 planned diyas in Patna—not “lakhs”—and does not establish the reel’s oil-volume…

An Instagram meme invokes the old “maun” label for Manmohan Singh to mock Narendra Modi’s press-conference record. Singh’s archival record includes numerous press interactions, while reporting through 2026 says Modi has not held a comparable open solo press conference in India—though he has appeared at joint press events, so a literal “no press conferences” reading…
