Bengali newspaper ..BARTAMAN HEADLINES<\/p>\n

Social media users also sent a query about the newspaper cutting to Alt News.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Photoshopped<\/h2>\n

A careful glance at the clipping is sufficient to reveal that the image has been morphed. The font, size and colour of the words “\u09b9\u09bf\u09a8\u09cd\u09a6\u09c1 (Hindu)” and “\u0995\u09be\u0981\u09a6\u09be \u09a4\u09c7 (cry)” do not match the words in the rest of the sentence. They are not in perfect alignment, are larger than the other words and are in a deeper shade of black.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

When we searched for the clipping on Facebook, we found that a user had uploaded the original photograph of the newspaper even though he had shared it with the false claim viral on social media.<\/p>\n

Bengali newspaper BARTAMAN HEADLINES<\/p>\n

Posted by Bhavana Kamdar<\/a> on\u00a0Monday, 29 April 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n

As evident, a few words of the original headline have been replaced. The word “\u09a6\u09bf\u09b2\u09cd\u09b2\u09bf (Delhi)” has been edited to “\u09b9\u09bf\u09a8\u09cd\u09a6\u09c1 (Hindu)” and the word “\u0995\u09be\u0981\u09aa\u09be\u09a4\u09c7 (shake)” has been replaced with “\u0995\u09be\u0981\u09a6\u09be \u09a4\u09c7 (cry)”. The original headline reads,\u00a0“\u09ea\u09e8\u099f\u09be \u0986\u09b8\u09a8 \u09a6\u09bf\u09a8, \u09a6\u09bf\u09b2\u09cd\u09b2\u09bf \u0995\u09c0\u09ad\u09be\u09ac\u09c7 \u0995\u09be\u0981\u09aa\u09be\u09a4\u09c7 \u09b9\u09df \u09a6\u09c7\u0996\u09bf\u09df\u09c7 \u09a6\u09c7\u09ac: \u09ae\u09ae\u09a4\u09be (Give me 42 seats and I will show you how to shake things up in Delhi.)”<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We also found the\u00a0Bartaman <\/em>article on the daily’s website<\/a>. According to the report, West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee made the statement at an election rally for TMC candidate Apurba Sarkar in Berhampur on April 19.<\/p>\n
