“The viral video shows Union Civil Aviation Minister dancing during the IndiGo flight crisis, implying he was celebrating while passengers were stranded.”
What FACTLY found
The video is old and dates back to July 2025 and shows the minister dancing at a family wedding celebration in Andhra Pradesh, as reported by multiple media outlets. While it is true that passengers were stranded at airports during the Indigo fiasco, this video is old and has nothing to do with current developments.
