I had tweeted recently that in Muslim majority areas in Kerala, as far back as the 1990s the Peaceful community had started stockpiling weapons in every home. Actually they are preparing for civil war. This arms haul is from a madrassa in Rajkot. pic.twitter.com\/fnDUzZ01rh<\/a><\/p>\n

The above post by an individual user has been shared over 1100 times so far. It was posted on July 29. This claim has also been posted in a group I AM WITH PM MODI AND YOU?<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n

FALSE CLAIM, OLD\/UNRELATED PHOTOS<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The claim that a large stock of weapons has been seized from a Rajkot madrasa is false. Alt News could not find a single news report to this effect. Moreover, the photographs used to bolster this false claim are old and unrelated to the claim. Let us scrutinise these pictures one-by-one.<\/p>\n

PHOTO 1<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Alt News reverse-searched the above image on Google and came across an article by India Today<\/em><\/a> which stated that this photograph is actually from a ‘kirpan’ factory in Patiala, Punjab. According to the article, the photo is from the ‘Khalsa Kirpan’ factory in the city. Alt News contacted ‘Khalsa Kirpan’ factory and confirmed that the picture is indeed from the factory at Patiala.<\/p>\n

PHOTO 2<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The above photo is indeed from Rajkot, but these swords were recovered not from a madrasa but from a hotel on the Ahmedabad-Rajkot highway. This picture had been shared earlier as well with the same narrative. Alt News’ fact-check on this may be read here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

PHOTO 3<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Alt News reverse-searched the above photograph and found it on Tumblr<\/em><\/a>. The photo was posted in March 2019. It was earlier shared<\/a> with the claim that weapons were recovered from a madrasa in Sherkot, UP.<\/p>\n

PHOTO 4<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The above photograph is recent. It pertains to a raid on a madrasa in Bijnor, Uttar Pradesh in which weapons were recovered. According to Bijnor police, the weapons seized were part of an illegal arms racket. Six people have been arrested in this case which is of July 2019.<\/p>\n
