“Video of an elderly man insulting Akhilesh Yadav by saying – ‘Go and build a mosque, no one from the neighbourhood will vote for you’”
What FACTLY found
The video is not related to any recent election campaign of Akhilesh Yadav. The video is being shared on the internet at least since November 2019. In the video, the elderly man neither insults Akhilesh Yadav nor talks about building a mosque. He talks about machines (EVMs) getting tampered. He says that if machines (EVMs) are not changed, then the party will neither get any votes nor form the government
