राहुल जी की यात्रा में नासिक में जनसैलाब है, ये जनता बता रही है कि महाराष्ट्र की ट्रिपल इंजन की सरकार विफल है और लोकसभा में महाराष्ट्र में भाजपा बुरी तरह हारने जा रही है।

Several other accounts, including @kkjourno, @LutyensMediaIN made the same claim that the video shows the massive crowd from from Rahul Gandhi’s “Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra” in Nashik, Maharashtra. The archive can be read from above.
What is the Actual Truth About this Incident? : Fact
The truth is that this is an old footage from Rajasthan, where a large crowd was seen during the Congress party’s “Bharat Jodo Yatra” in December 2022. The video is outdated and has nothing to do with Maharashtra or the Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra.
We found out the twitter post of @Supriya23bh where the same video can be seen. The post was made on Dec 16, 2022 where it was claimed that the video is from Bharat Jodo Yatra of Congress Party in Rajasthan. The video is not at all recent, it is clear from the post. Hence, some propagandists have spread the misleading news about this video on the social media.
