“PM Modi pushes Eknath Shinde to get a photo without him”
What FACTLY found
These visuals of PM Modi and Eknath Shinde were captured during the flagging-off ceremony of the Vande Bharath Express that connects Nagpur and Bilaspur. The full video is available on PM Modi’s Youtube channel. After the train left the platform, the PM could be seen patting the back of Eknath Shinde and shaking his hand after the Maharashtra CM took a backstep. Even though the viral video has the same visuals, it is being shared with a misleading narrative that the PM was pushing Eknath Shinde
