Remember that photo of a humble Modi sweeping the floor? It's fake!

When Prime Minister Narendra Modi won the elections with a sweeping majority in 2014, the whole Internet almost went on a mission to showcase Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s humble background.

Among many of his photos, a black-and-white photo of Modi holding a broom and cleaning floor had gone viral.

On social media its authenticity was questioned by many but nobody could prove it was fake or real.

But an RTI reply has revealed that the photo was fake and it was photoshopped.

An Ahmedabad-based activist had sought information under the Right to Information (RTI) Act to check the authenticity of the image.

The RTI reply says, “…It is stated while the information sought does not form part of records, it may be noted that the said photograph is morphed and the person in the photo is not Mr Narendra Modi,” reported a news portal, Janta Ka Reporter.

“We all know that Modi saheb spent so much money to win the election. To win the election, his party even used morphed photo and it was widely circulated by andh bhakt (blind supporters) or paid bhakt. That’s precisely what promoted to file an RTI request to cross verify if the photo was genuine,” the same news portal quoted an Ahmedabad-based activist, who had filed RTI, as saying.

And apparently, this is the real image:

Muslim organisations felicitate State BJP Chief Nalin Kumar

 

I want to know from them wat was the need for this. Has this helped the ordinary Mangalore Muslims in anyway. I would not have asked abt this if the program was conducted in your house. But here it is done in the name of Muslims. We need to stop being intellectually dishonest

We respect ur decision sir.

 

But there are a lot of questions about it on people's mind.

We need to be updated about ur next plan of action.

Are u planning to approach the court for gaining the permission from the police, bcoz otherwise I don't think we will get the permission

 

Secondly, a few days back I wanted to contact Muslim central committee office to confirm if the protest Wil be there. I googled for the no, but the no. did not exist. Does that mean the Muslim central committee does not have an office or telephone no????

This only shows how organised we are.

Requesting Muslim central committee to get their house in order. Get more professional. Also consult people to utilise various platform to responsibly collect funds from so many ordinary bearys who want to donate money, but don't know whom to send it to.

We need an action committee to handle such situations. It must consist a battery of lawyers to fight the cases filed by the police.

If our leaders are old, they need to groom new leaders into the committee.

 

Moreover, it is important to question these so called leaders about their fecilitation program conducted for making kateel wen he won the election. Wat was the purpose of such fecilitation. Becoz I don't think he gives a damn when our community suffered. I question, whether all this is done in our name only to gain your contact and flourish ur business???

Never ever dare to do so in the name of Muslims
