A photograph of Navi Mumbai-based self-proclaimed labour leader and activist Vinay Dubey, along with a man and a woman, was posted by one Shiv Yadav on Twitter. Yadav claimed<\/a> that Dubey’s mother had married a Muslim man (his father) named Mahmood.<\/p>\n

\"\"Dubey was arrested along with 10 others including ABP Majha<\/em> reporter Rahul Kulkarni by the Mumbai police for their alleged role in “rumour-mongering” that led to a mass gathering of migrant workers at Bandra station. He had reportedly<\/a> made a video which went viral where he asked migrants to assemble at Kurla railway terminus on April 18.\u00a0 While Kulkarni was granted bail by a court in Mumbai, Dubey has been remanded<\/a> to police custody till April 21.<\/p>\n

“Vinay Dubey\u2019s mother married a Muslim, Vinay Dubey father\u2019s name is Mahmood. He was deliberately named Vinay Dubey so that many Hindu brothers and sisters could be misled to think of him as a Hindu Brahmin. The is an important tactic of Jihadis to damage Hindutva and country,” tweeted Yadav on April 16. While Yadav later clarified<\/a> that the information shared by him was incorrect, his original tweet was retweeted more than 1,100 times.<\/p>\n

Facebook user Vinubhai Patel posted<\/a> the photograph with the same narrative. His post has garnered over 19,000 shares so far.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Many other people on Twitter<\/a> and Facebook<\/a> shared the same message with the photo.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Fact-check<\/h4>\n

Alt News found that the claim made along with the image is false. With a Google search, we found the personal details submitted<\/a> by Dubey when he had filed a nomination for the Kalyan Lok Sabha seat in the 2019 general elections. As per MyNeta’s<\/em> database, Vinay Dubey’s father’s name is Jatashankar Dubey and not Mahmood as claimed on social media.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Moreover, fact-checking outlet SMHoaxslayer<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>found that the photo which is now viral was posted from Dubey’s Facebook profile in February 2020. The photo is from a CAA protest in Patna, Bihar. It is very likely that the man and the woman are protesters.<\/p>\n

On April 15, Times Now<\/em> had identified<\/a> Vinay Dubey as an NCP leader, however, NCP’s national spokesperson Nawab Malik refuted<\/a> the claim and said that Dubey is not a member of the party.<\/p>\n

\n

This is to make it clear that the man Vinay Dube arrested by @Navimumpolice<\/a> and later by @MumbaiPolice<\/a> is not a member of the NCP.
\nSome sections of News Media are calling him an NCP leader, which is false and appears to be a malicious campaign to malign the image of our party.<\/p>\n

It is worthwhile to note here that Vinay Dubey’s father Jatashankar Dubey who is an auto-driver had donated Rs 25,000 to Maharastra’s Chief Minister Relief Fund to help tackle the COVID-19 outbreak in the state. Vinay Dubey had quote-tweeted a tweet by Maharastra’s Home Minister Anil Deshmukh on April 10.<\/p>\n
