A picture is going viral on social media. With which it is being claimed that the Maharashtra government has started a new practice. Under which now the literary conference is being started with the recitation of Quran.
A user tweeted that ‘Marathi literature conferences have a historical tradition, this time the Maharashtra government has started a new practice, earlier literature conferences used to start with Saraswati Vandana, now literature conferences are being started by reciting verses of Quran.
Many users posted the same.
Fact check
On checking this picture, we found that this picture is of NCP MP Supriya Sule. Which was taken at a wedding. Supriya Sule also posted other pictures on Facebook on December 4, 2021. Also captioned ‘Hearty congratulations Sameer Shamim Khan and family!’
While searching on YouTube, we found a video posted by Aapka Prahar Times on 7 December. In which it was told that Supriya Sule attended the marriage of Speaker Shamim Khan’s daughter Sana and son Sameer from Kalwa Mumbra of NCP.
Hence this claim is misleading and false.
