At the same time, the Narendra Modi-led NDA government has been at the centre since 2014.<\/p>\n Therefore, it is clear that the viral picture was not taken during Congress rule, but three years after the BJP came to power at the centre.<\/p>\n Image 2<\/strong><\/p>\n For the second image, we couldn’t find any credible sources, other than a website<\/a> that claims that the photo was taken during the 2021 Republic Day celebrations.<\/p>\n Some of the children in the picture are seen wearing masks, this hints that the image could be recent. Upon close observation, we noticed that the building behind the children has some words written on the hoarding. While we could make out “GOODWILL\u201d, a part of another word is legible. It reads “PORA\u201d. Readers are requested to open the image in a new tab and zoom in to see for themselves.<\/p>\n Below we have added the photo, highlighting the observations as mentioned above.<\/p>\n Taking all the clues, we tried to gather further information regarding this building. We performed a keyword search on Google which showed us results related to Army Goodwill Schools.<\/p>\n We looked at the website of the school<\/a> and found that there’s an Army Goodwill School in Bandipora<\/a>.<\/p>\n Alt News spoke with one of the employees of the school who wishes to remain anonymous. They positively identified the location in the photo as the Army Goodwill School in Bandipora and confirmed that the photo was taken during the preparation for the 2021 Republic Day celebrations. When asked whether such celebrations were done prior to 2014, they replied that they’ve been “celebrating national days since 2004”. The school was established in 2004.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.altnews.in\/english-clone-2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2021\/07\/J-agarwal-ss.jpg\")
