“Visuals of Jawaharlal Nehru admitting that he was not involved in the fight for Indian independence.”
What FACTLY found
This viral video has been edited. The original interview footage of Nehru has been clipped, edited, and shared out of context to spread misinformation, falsely suggesting that Nehru admitted he was not involved in the fight for Indian independence. In the unedited video, Nehru actually states, “Mr. Jinnah was not involved in the fight for independence at all. In fact, he opposed it.”
