A video showing Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav’s family gathering is being widely shared on social media. The accompanying description claims that the Evian company water bottle seen on their table costs around ₹2900 per litre. Let’s verify this claim made in the post.
Claim: Cost of the Evian brand’s water bottle seen at the family gathering of Tejashwi Yadav is ₹2900 per liter.
Fact: The cost of the 1-liter Evian bottled water visible in the viral video is not ₹2900 but rather ₹250. Hence the claim made in the post is FALSE.
An internet search for the prices of various variants of Evian bottled water across different e-commerce sites revealed that the average price of a 1-litre Evian water bottle ranges from ₹200 to ₹500, depending on the variant, packaging options, retailer, and other factors. However, the specific variant featured in the viral video has an MRP of ₹250 and is currently being sold for ₹225 on Big Basket.
Additionally, we also found that another bottle visible in the video is the Himalayan brand bottled water, which has an MRP of ₹70.
To sum it up, contrary to the claim, the cost of the 1-litre Evian bottled water visible in the viral video is not ₹2900 but rather ₹250.
