A three second clip of BJP national president JP Nadda giving a speech on stage is making the rounds on social media. It has been claimed that Nadda said that having a Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government was equivalent to being raped.<\/span><\/p>\n

Congress leader Lalan Kumar amplified the claim by tweeting the video. He wrote, \u201cToday @JPNadda<\/a> admitted the truth after all.” Those holding drones and binoculars in particular should hear that a \u201cBJP government means rape\u201d. (<\/span>Archived link<\/span><\/a>)<\/span><\/p>\n

Congress national secretary Szarita Laitphlang also promoted the clip on Twitter, claiming that JP Nadda had a slip of the tongue, and termed the BJP a party of rapists. (<\/span>Archived link<\/span><\/a>)<\/span><\/p>\n

Fact Check<\/span><\/h4>\n

We noticed that the BJP Uttar Pradesh Twitter handle replied to Lalan Kumar’s tweet containing the original video, and described the viral clip as shoddy editing. In this video, JP Nadda is heard saying, \u201cIf you want to think about the BJP, remind yourself of the days of the CPM government as well. Remember that, a <\/span>CPM government means rape<\/span>\u2026\u201d In other words, the viral video has been edited and two different parts have been juxtaposed to create the impression that JP Nadda likened the BJP government to rapists.<\/span><\/p>\n
