“The video shows Income Tax Department officials seizure of a substantial quantity of gold ornaments from Mubina Nishka Begum, who served as the Public Relations Officer (PRO) for Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanam (TTD) during the YSRCP Government in Andhra Pradesh.”
What FACTLY found
The viral video is unrelated to Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanam. It shows a media conference held by Vellore Police after the recovery of stolen gold from the Jos Alukkas showroom in December 2021. Additionally, TTD issued a clarification on their official X handle on 05 January 2025, stating that the gold jewelry featured in the video is unrelated to their Public Relations Officer and that no Muslim individual held the position of PRO at TTD.
