Video from April 2025 showing Pappu Yadav in a Ram Navami procession is misrepresented as occurring after the Purnia Airport inauguration
In a recent turn of events, a video of Pappu Yadav, the Purnia MP, clad in saffron and chanting praises of Lord Rama, has been circulating on social media platforms. However, contrary to some claims, this video does not depict an event that took place after Pappu Yadav met with Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the Purnia Airport inauguration on 15 September 2025.
The video, in fact, dates back to 07 April 2025, as confirmed by a reverse image search of key frames from the viral video leading to an Instagram post by Pappu Yadav himself dated 07 April 2025, featuring the same video. This video was also posted on Bharat TV 24's YouTube channel on 08 April 2025.
On 06 April 2025, Pappu Yadav joined the Shobha Yatra held on the occasion of Ram Navami, as reported by Bharat TV 24. During this event, Pappu Yadav was seen participating with the crowd in chanting praises of Lord Shri Ram at several locations, including Durga Sthan Madhubani, Madhubani Bazaar, Municipal Corporation Chowk, R.N. Shah Chowk, Bhatta Bazaar, and Rajni Chowk.
It's important to note that no credible media reports of a religious procession involving Pappu Yadav after 15 September 2025 were found during the verification process. Furthermore, there are no publicly available records of Pappu Yadav participating in religious processions in Purnia after this date.
In conclusion, the claim made in the post that the video shows Pappu Yadav in saffron, chanting praises of Lord Rama, after meeting PM Narendra Modi at the Purnia Airport inauguration is FALSE. The visuals in the video are from the Ram Navami Shobha Yatra held on 06 April 2025, and the video was posted on Instagram by Pappu Yadav himself on 07 April 2025.
