The purported statement of Arvind Kejriwal, backing Dheeraj Sahu, states, “Dheeraj Sahu is being framed by false allegations, I am an educated man, I have read the Constitution of India, it is not written on any page that one cannot keep cash at home.” (when translated to English from Hindi). Let’s verify the claim made in the post. ![\\"\\"](\\" statements-in-support-of-Deeraj-Sahu-Claim.jpg\\") > Claim: Arvind Kejriwal’s statement in support of Congress politician Dheeraj > Sahu after over Rs. 351 crore in cash has been recovered in the Income Tax > department’s raids. > > Fact: The statement is falsely attributed to Arvind Kejriwal by a parody ‘X’ > account with the name AAP Gujarat. Lately, Arvind Kejriwal did not make any > statement in support of Jharkhand Congress MP Deeraj Sahu. In the bio > section of the parody ‘X’ handle, it is clearly stated that they are not > affiliated to any political party. Hence, the claim made in the post is > False. When we searched to check whether Arvind Kejriwal had recently made any statement backing Jharkhand Congress MP Deeraj Sahu, we could not find any such statement on the official social media handles of Arvind Kejriwal. No news agency published articles reporting Arvind Kejriwal making such a statement in support of Deeraj Sahu. Upon searching for further details, we found that the purported statement was tweeted by a parody ‘X’ account created with the name ‘AAP Gujarat || Mission 2024 || Loksabha – Parody’. The parody ‘X’ handle tweeted this statement by attributing it to Arvind Kejriwal. However, Kejriwal did not make any such statement in support of Deeraj Sahu. > \"धीरज साहू पर जूठा आरोप लगा कर फसाया जा रहा है, में पढ़ा लिखा आदमी हुँ, > मैने भारत का संविधान पढ़ा है, घर में कैश नहीं रख सखते ऐसा किसी भी पन्ने पर > नहीं लिखा है।\"– CM #ArvindKejriwal pic.twitter.com/3K15twOHn5 > > — AAP Gujarat || Mission 2024 || Loksabha – Parody (@18Kishann) December 11, > 2023 In the bio-section of the parody ‘X’ handle, it is clearly stated that they are not affiliated to any political party and that the tweets published on this ‘X’ handle are just satire. ![\\"\\"](\\" statements-in-support-of-Deeraj-Sahu-Image-2-1.jpg\\") To sum it up, this purported statement of Arvind Kejriwal made in support of Congress politician Dheeraj Sahu was tweeted by AAP Gujarat’s parody ‘X’ handle. ![\\"Factly\\"](\\" WhatsApp-channel-minified-scaled.jpeg\\") Share.
