“The video shows Prime Minister Narendra Modi saying that he will eradicate poverty from the country at once.”
What FACTLY found
The viral video is presented out of context to make it appear that Prime Minister Narendra Modi said he would eradicate poverty from India in a single stroke. In the original video, PM Modi was referring to Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s earlier statement about eradicating poverty and questioning the claim, rather than making the claim himself.
