Subhashini Ali has posted a clarification on her official X account, stating that it is a fake video.
A video of a woman criticizing Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has been shared online with the false claim that it is Subhashini Ali, a leader of the CPM, which is in alliance with the grand old party.
A video circulating on social media platforms amid the 2024 Indian Lok Sabha elections depicts an older woman criticizing Rahul Gandhi and referring to Prime Minister Narendra Modi as a "beacon of peace". Multiple users have claimed that the woman in the video is Subhashini Ali, a leader of the Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M).
In the video, the woman, speaking in Hindi, says, "If you want the nation to progress, please don't mention Rahul Gandhi. He lacks knowledge about politics and the country." She further praises PM Modi, stating, "If you want to save the country, we should vote for Modi. He has handled the whole country, and we should be grateful to him. He is saving us from the wars that are happening around the world, and I think he is a beacon of peace." (Translated to English)
