Factcheck: Picture Of Three IPS Officers Got Viral As Siblings.

DFRAC Editor March 24, 2022 2 min read

A photo of two men and one woman dressed up in police uniform is going on the internet.  Further, social media users are claiming that they are siblings and had cleared India’s one of the toughest examinations UPSC to become IPS officers. Along with the picture, Manik Islam wrote that “Equal rights, equal dignity, it must be understood by the society. Three brothers and sisters in one family are IPS officers !! Girl does not mean “shoulder burden”, we should “burden” girls! If we get the right opportunity, not only boys but also girls will brighten the face of the family !! Say … “she is, my daughter!” 

Similarly, many other social media users have shared this picture on their handles encouraging women empowerment.

Fact Check

After reverse image search, we found this picture on the Instagram handles of Tushar Gupta and Pooja Vashisth.

 

On our analysis, we found that they are IPS officers of batch 2018. Tushar Gupta of the Haryana cadre got rank 113 in the civil service examination 2017 in his very first attempt. Furthermore, the woman in the picture is IPS Pooja Vashisth of Haryana Cadre. And, this one is Shrut Kirti Somavanshi. He is also an IPS officer of the same batch.

Conclusion

Hence, from our fact check analysis it is clear that they are batchmates, not siblings.But, this picture is getting viral time to time claiming that they are siblings.
