Let’s fact-check this video through this article. ![\\"\\"](\\" Comments-on-Modi-01-1024x468.png\\") > Claim: Home Minister Amith Shah said, ‘Modi Ji sleeps for 24 hours for the > welfare of the poor of the country.’ > > Fact: This is a clipped video of a 2021 speech of Amit Shah at a public > meeting in Chapra, West Bengal. In the original speech, Shah states that PM > Modi thinks 24 hours a day for the welfare of the country’s poor, while > Mamata Banerjee thinks 24 hours a day about her Nephew becoming the Chief > Minister. Amit Shah saying ‘Sochte’ is being shared as him saying ‘Sothe’. > Hence the claim made in the post is FALSE. We searched the internet with relevant keywords and found that similar posts also went viral in 2021; the earliest one was from April 2021. Since the video in the viral post looks like Amit Shah’s speech at some meeting, we searched on the BJP’s official YouTube channel for his speeches from April 2021 and found the video in which he made these remarks, as seen in the viral video. The video was uploaded on 17th April 2021 and was titled ‘HM Shri Amit Shah addresses public meeting in Chapra, West Bengal.’ At 5:39, Sec. Amit Shah says, ‘Modi Ji 24 ghanta sochte hain ki des ke gareebon ka Kalyan ho.’ This translates to ‘Modi Ji thinks 24 hours for the welfare of the country’s poor‘. He then continues to say, ‘aur Didi 24 ghanta sothi hai, mera bhatija (Nephew) kab mukhyamantri bane…’, which translates to ‘Didi (Mamata Banerjee) thinks 24 hours a day about his Nephew becoming the CM’ ![\\"\\"](\\" Comments-on-Modi-02-1024x503.jpg\\") Amit Shah saying ‘Sochte’ is being shared as him saying ‘Sothe’. The viral post only contains the part of Amit Shah’s speech while he speaks about Modi and cleverly cuts off the portion in which he speaks about Mamata Banerjee to make it look like he did say that Modi ‘sleeps’ 24hrs a day instead of ‘thinks’. To sum up, an old video of Amit Shah’s speech is shared as him saying PM Modi sleeps 24 hours a day for the welfare of the poor. ![\\"Factly\\"](\\" WhatsApp-channel-minified-scaled.jpeg\\") Share.
