In a now-deleted tweet, Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag shared a photo of Das and wrote, “Many congratulations to Hima Das on winning gold in the 400 m at the Commonwealth Games\u201d. (<\/span>Archived link<\/span><\/a>)<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Bharatiya Janata Party spokesperson <\/span>Sambit Patra<\/span><\/a> also tweeted a photo of Das, writing, “History created! It is a historic moment for the nation as our athlete Hima Das wins the 400m gold medal in CWG at Birmingham. This is the first time India secured a gold medal in the track events, that too by a huge margin”. However, <\/span>he deleted this tweet<\/span><\/a> after some users pointed out that the video was old.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Sanjeev Jasani, the chief operating officer (COO) of the advertising agency Cheil India also amplified the video with this claim. (<\/span>Archived link<\/span><\/a>)<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Several other users<\/span><\/a> also shared the footage with the aforementioned claim.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fact-check<\/b><\/h4>\n

Taking a closer look at the viral video, we noticed banners reading ‘IAAF World U20 Championship Tampere 2018’ and ‘Tampere Stadium’ appear in a frame.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We performed a keyword search, which led us to an article by the <\/span>Hindustan Times<\/span><\/a> published on July 13, 2018. According to this article, Hima Das became the first Indian woman to win gold at the IAAF World Under-20 Athletics Championships when she won the 400m title in Tampere.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Hindustan Times article also includes a tweet from ‘World Athletics’ dated July 13, 2018. It carries a clip from the 400m final event.<\/p>\n

We performed another keyword search on YouTube and found the full-length video on the World Athletics YouTube channel from 2021. Scenes from the viral video appear here between the 4:21 to 6:40 mark. This video is titled, \u201cWomen\u2019s 400m Final \u2013 World Athletics U20 Championship Tampere 2018\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

To sum it up, several social media users including Sambit Patra and Virender Sehwag falsely linked Hima Das winning the 400m event at the 2018 IAAF World Under-20 Athletics Championships in Tampere as the ongoing Commonwealth Games in Birmingham. A video of this victory was also shared as being from 2022.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
