Videos featuring news anchors are being widely shared on social media, which claim that leaked documents have exposed secrets of the current BJP government in Assam.
A user named John Samuel has shared a video of a female anchor, where she is seen talking about the leaked documents. While sharing the video, the user has claimed, “Assam people have realised the mistake of electing the BJP and are ready to throw out in the next election.
The “Most corrupt” Himantha has ruined the state.
BJP has lost its moral to rule Assam.”
Another user has also shared a video that features AajTak anchor Rajeev Dhoundiyal with a similar claim.
Fact Check
Upon investigation, we found the claim to be fake. No such report or leaked documents have been found in any credible media coverage, nor has Aaj Tak media (whose logo is also shared in the video) shared any such report.
A close observation shows mismatched lip movements of both anchors. We verified the video using an AI video detector tool, which confirmed that the video was digitally created using AI tools.
Conclusion
Our fact-check confirms that the viral claim is fake. There are no leaked documents related to the Assam government, and the video is an AI-generated deepfake.
