The ‘promo’ of the broadcast has the words, “\u0915\u094d\u092f\u093e \u091a\u0902\u0926\u094d\u0930\u092f\u093e\u0928 2 \u0915\u0940 \u0905\u0938\u092b\u0932\u0924\u093e \u0915\u0947 \u0932\u093f\u090f \u0915\u093e\u0902\u0917\u094d\u0930\u0947\u0938 \u095b\u093f\u092e\u094d\u092e\u0947\u0926\u093e\u0930?” (Is Congress responsible for the failure of Chandrayaan-2?”- translated).\u00a0\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

The above tweet is by Preeti Chobey<\/a>\u00a0who has quote-tweeted another user Piyush Mishra<\/a> who appears to have originally tweeted the image. Chobey is a member of the Samajwadi Party (SP). Her tweet has been retweeted over 200 times so far.<\/p>\n

PHOTOSHOPPED IMAGE<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The graphic of the ABP News<\/em> promo featuring Rubika Liyaquat and the Chandrayaan-2 mission is fake. If one looks at it closely, the word Memerao <\/em>is inscribed on it, suggesting that this could be a meme.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Alt News did not find a single such graphic either broadcast or tweeted by ABP News<\/em>. Moreover, Ms. Liyaquat herself took to Twitter, quote-tweeting Ms. Chobey’s tweet to rubbish the image, saying, “Edited picture \u092a\u0930 \u091c\u092c verified account \u092b\u093c\u094c\u0930\u0928 \u0915\u0942\u0926\u0928\u0947 \u0932\u0917\u0947 \u0924\u094b \u0938\u092e\u091d \u091c\u093e\u090f\u0901 \u0926\u093f\u092e\u093e\u0917\u093c \u091b\u0941\u091f\u094d\u091f\u0940 \u092a\u0930 \u0939\u0948” (“When a verified account starts jumping on an edited picture, it means the brain is on holiday”- translation).<\/em><\/p>\n

ABP News<\/em> is a favourite among misinformation purveyors, who often use the channel’s name, logo and broadcast format to circulate fake quotes or fake news. In 2018, a fake screenshot of a ABP News<\/em> broadcast was viral, showing Rahul Gandhi had suggested a massive loan to help Pakistan. In another instance, a bizarre statement was falsely attributed<\/a> to UP CM Yogi Adityanath via a morphed screenshot of a broadcast. However, in this case, it appears that a meme was construed as real and shared on social media.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
