Fake video showing BJP flags in China during PM Modi's visit unjustifiably circulated from Ahmedabad
In August 2025, a video featuring Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to Ahmedabad was shared online with a claim that it showed BJP flags erected in China during his visit to China. However, a closer look at the facts reveals that this claim is false.
The video in question was found on the official YouTube channel of Prime Minister Modi. The video's title indicates it was shot in Ahmedabad, not China, and the roadshow seen in the video was live-streamed on the BJP's official YouTube channel on 25 August 2025. The original location of the video can be found using the street view option on Google Maps, as it is the Mango Plus Cinemas in Ahmedabad.
The video shows PM Modi inaugurating development projects worth 5,400 crores related to the state of Gujarat during his visit. BJP flags are visible in the video, set up on poles on the roadside. People are seen waving their hands at PM Modi, reflecting the joyful crowd that welcomed him.
Despite the video's circulation, no credible source, news report, or government statement supports the viral claim of the video showing BJP flags in China during PM Modi's visit to China. No Indian embassy or foreign government has reported any such event in relation to PM Modi's recent visit to China.
In fact, media reports about this event from various sources can be found here, here, and here. They all confirm that the video is from an Ahmedabad rally in August 2025. The video has been fact-checked and found to be fake.
It is essential to verify information before sharing it, especially when it concerns high-profile public figures like the Prime Minister. Misinformation can cause unnecessary confusion and harm the reputation of individuals and institutions. So, let's strive to promote accuracy and truth in our online interactions.
