Following this, Shah greets him with folded hands and shakes his hand. After this, Justice Chandrachud greets Shah\u2019s wife with folded hands. When he was greeting the home minister&#8217;s wife, Shah was facing forward. The same frame was captured and shared without context with the claim that DY Chandrachud was standing next to home minister Amit Shah with folded hands, but the latter ignored him.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/WATCH?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#WATCH<\/a> | CJI DY Chandrachud and Union Home Minister Amit Shah greet each other at Red Fort during Independence Day celebrations <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/3EhYKb9GXC\">pic.twitter.com\/3EhYKb9GXC<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 ANI (@ANI) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ANI\/status\/1691267203105181696?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 15, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">After being called out by social media users, senior journalist Pankaj Jha deleted his tweet while <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20230816132622\/https:\/\/twitter.com\/PMishra_Journo\/status\/1691320875226963968\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Prabhakar Kumar Mishra<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> said that he had shared the image in appreciation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">To sum up, several social media users, politicians and journalists shared a screenshot of Supreme Court Chief Justice DY Chandrachud greeting home minister Amit Shah&#8217;s wife with folded hands on the occasion of Independence Day celebrations with the false claim that he was greeting Shah himself and was being ignored. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.altnews.in\/english-clone-2026\/hindi\/fact-check-did-pm-modi-insult-president-ram-nath-kovind-during-his-farewell\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">July 2022<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, a video clip of the farewell ceremony of President Ramnath Kovind was circulated with a similar false claim that PM Narendra Modi had insulted him by ignoring his greetings.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Several dignitaries including the Prime Minister and the Chief Justice of India attended the Independence Day celebrations held at the Red Fort.
