Amritpal Singh, the head of ‘<\/span>Waris De Punjab<\/span><\/a>‘, is a pro-Khalistan leader who is on the run. On February 23 in Amritsar, Singh’s supporters attacked the Ajnala police station, resulting in injuries to six police officers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

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

With a simple keyword search, Alt News came across an article by Dainik Bhaskar dated March 31 covering Ashok Gehlot\u2019s Bharatpur tour. According to the report, Gehlot lashed out at Bhagwat and Yogi Adityanath along with PM Modi at the divisional level worker’s conference in the safe house built at Police Parade Ground. He said that Bhagwat and the PM spoke about a Hindu nation, which is why Amritpal got the courage to speak about Khalistan. The article also carried the video of the Rajasthan chief minister. Relevant scenes from the viral video appear here at the 0:24 mark.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to Dainik Bhaskar’s video, Ashok Gehlot had said, \u201cAmritpal Singh is saying that if he talks about a Hindu nation then why should I not talk about Khalistan. He has said this so accurately.<\/span> This is a very dangerous thing for the country. For the first time in history, <\/b>if we talk about a Hindu nation, others respond why they should not create the same for their communities<\/b>. Tomorrow the southern states will start speaking up. Such a call was raised in the southern states 40-50 years ago, the new generation may not know. We should worry about the future of the country\u2026\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n

In other words, several Right Wing users, including BJP leader Arun Yadav, falsely claimed that Ashok Gehlot justified Amritpal’s demand for Khalistan while sharing a clipped video of the Rajasthan chief minister. Upon watching the entire video, it becomes clear that Gehlot was instead expressing concern over raising the demand for Khalistan.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
