“A Navbharat Times graphic quotes PM Modi discussing his father’s death in the 133rd episode of the Mann Ki Baat.”
What FACTLY found
There is no evidence that Prime Minister Narendra Modi spoke about his father’s death during the 133rd episode of Mann Ki Baat. The statement attributed to him in the viral graphic does not appear in the official transcript of the programme, and no such report was published by Navbharat Times. NBT has also clarified that the viral graphic is fake and falsely uses its branding.
