Alt News found that the enormous crowd shown in the image is digitally manipulated. We were able to establish that the image has been doctored through a simple reverse image search on Google, which led to the original picture.<\/p>\n

Alt News traced the image back to December 2017, when Amit Shah and PM Modi were seen sharing a dais at the swearing-in ceremony of Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Jai Ram Thakur.<\/p>\n
