Deepfakes of Journalists on Bihar NDA-PTI Funding Spread
Some people on the internet made fake videos of famous Indian journalists.
These videos show the journalists talking about politicians from Bihar's NDA party giving money to a political party in Pakistan called PTI.
The fake videos say that Indian tax money was given to PTI, and that this was done to make it seem like India won something called Operation Sindoor.
These videos are being shared to spread false information.
Deepfake videos of Indian journalists Ravish Kumar, Palki Sharma Upadhyay, and Shiv Aroor are circulating on social media.
The videos allege that Bihar's NDA leaders have links with Pakistan's PTI and funneled Indian tax payer money to them.
The claim is tied to the narrative of India 'winning' Operation Sindoor.
The videos are being shared to spread misinformation about political funding and operations.
The authenticity of the videos and the claims made in them are not verified.
