Cropped Priyanka Video Viral: 'Amethi Voters Would Question Rajiv Gandhi'
A video of Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra talking about late Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi is being shared with a misleading claim that she said that voters in Amethi criticized him for not building a road in his parliamentary constituency. Fact-checking organisation BOOM found that in the original speech, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra was giving an example of how voters used to hold leaders accountable in the past and made a comparison to present day and alleged that leaders provoke people in the name of religion and ask for votes instead of talking on issues.
