Fact Check: AAP Shares Altered Video Of Pankaj Tripathi Asking People "Not To Vote For BJP" | Read
Ahead of the 2025 Delhi Assembly elections, the official X account of the incumbent Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) shared a video on December 5, 2024, featuring actor Pankaj Tripathi. The video claims Tripathi spoke out against voting for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
A reverse image search of the viral clip led us to the original video, which was uploaded on YouTube by the channel UPI Chalega (archived here) on September 23, 2024. The video, titled "Peanutwala | Fake lottery link | UPI security awareness," was part of a public awareness campaign about UPI (Unified Payments Interface) scams.
