New Delhi: The Congress has once again resorted to lies to promote Congress Lok Sabha MP Rahul Gandhi's 'Bharat Jodo Yatra'. Two pictures of this journey are going viral, in which thousands of people are seen. With these pictures going viral on social media, it is being claimed that it is from Chanwali in Jhalawar, Rajasthan, where a huge crowd gathered to welcome Rahul Gandhi and the whole of Rajasthan is with Rahul.

Congress Secretary Ramkishan Ojha tweeted from his official Twitter handle and shared 4 pictures, including these two pictures. The Congress leader wrote in his tweet that, 'A huge crowd gathered to welcome the future of India Mr. Rahul Gandhi at Chanwali in Jhalawar district of Rajasthan. The whole of Rajasthan is with Mr. Rahulji in this fight to eradicate hatred and create a better India with love and brotherhood.' To know its truth, when we searched the media reports related to 'Bharat Jodo Yatra' in Rajasthan, it was found that the yatra in Rajasthan started from Jhalawar on 5th December. But, none of the media reports found a picture showing such a huge crowd welcoming Rahul Gandhi. Along with this, the flag of 'Bharat Jodo Yatra' can not be seen anywhere in these two pictures being widely shared by Congress leaders. The Congress flag was also not shown. Generally, such flags, poster-banners are seen in the hands of the crowd who have joined the 'Bharat Jodo Yatra'.

Then we googled these pictures and found that the viral pictures are actually from Jai Gurudev Ashram in Mathura, where thousands of people had arrived at Guru Maharaj's Bhandara program. Pictures of Guru Maharaj's Bhandara have been uploaded on December 3 from a Twitter handle named Pankaj Ji Maharaj. In which these two pictures are seen, which the Congress leader is sharing as 'Bharat Jodo Yatra' and saying that this crowd has come to welcome Rahul Gandhi. While this is a blatant lie, this crowd has gathered in Guru Maharaja's Bhandara at Mathura. ┬а

Congress 'lies' have been caught in the past too:

However, this is not the first time that Congress leaders have resorted to 'lies' to promote the 'Bharat Jodo Yatra' and brighten Rahul Gandhi's image. Earlier, former Madhya Pradesh minister Jitu Patwari and other Congress leaders had shared the Nigerian crowd as a crowd that came to welcome Rahul Gandhi on the Bharat Jodo Yatra. But, social media users had exposed this lie of Congress. Earlier also, such lies of the Congress have been caught, with the help of which the party tries to shine its politics, but then the truth exposed.

Some time ago, the official Twitter handle of Delhi Congress posted a false survey in the name of 'Aaj Tak' media channel on social media, on the basis of which it was claimed that Rahul Gandhi is more popular than Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the country. The party claimed that Rahul Gandhi's support rating is 52 percent, while Narendra Modi is behind with a 46 percent rating. However, 'Aaj Tak' itself had called for the immediate withdrawal of this survey, calling it fake, after which Congress deleted the tweet without explanation or apology. People on social media are also questioning why Congress uses such false propaganda, can't it connect the people on the basis of their work?
