DeTect: Clip of Nitin Gadkari shared falsely as jibe at BJP

CHENNAI: BJP leader Nitin Gadkari was recently dropped from the BJP’s Parliamentary Board and Central Election Committee. Against this backdrop, a video featuring him has gone viral. Gadkari is heard saying, “My post is gone. I don’t care, I’m not a political professional. We’ll see what happens.” A netizen shared this video saying even commoners were shown the door by BJP. Alt News found that two disjointed clips from a speech by Gadkari were stitched together and shared to falsely suggest that he made these remarks after being removed from the said posts.
