Many Facebook users are sharing a post with a video alleging that during a debate on a news channel, a Trinamool Congress leader pulled out a gun and pointed it at the BJP speaker. Let’s try to analyze the claim made in the post.
Claim: A TMC leader during a debate on a news channel, pulled out a gun and pointed it at the BJP speaker in the show.
Fact: TMC leader had actually pointed the mic which he was holding from the start of the debate and not the gun as alleged in the post. Hence, the claim stands FALSE.
When searched in YouTube with the keywords “Zee Bengali Fight between TMC and BJP leaders in a debate”, the actual and complete video of the one posted on Facebook will be found. On analyzing the video by slowing down its speed, it can be clearly seen that TMC leader Rabindranath Ghosh had actually pointed a mic towards the BJP leader Nishith Pramanik, when there was a verbal dispute between them.
To sum it up, the TMC leader pointed a mic towards the BJP leader when there was a heated argument between both.
