What FACTLY found

The twitter account ‘@rashtrptibhvn’ seen in the image is not the official account of Ram Nath Kovind, the President of India. In fact, when one tries to open that handle, it is shown that the account is “suspended”. The official twitter account of President of India is ‘@rashtrapatibhvn’, and no such tweet as shared in the post was made through this account
