Dr Manmohan Singh – A Facebook user named Fan Club PM Modi with the caption ‘peechhe dekho…Nehru trying to prevent Modi from working in Germany.” And shared a photo of Chancellor Schultz’s meeting, in which Nehru is seen in the background.”

On searching the internet, we found that many pictures of PM Modi and Chancellor Schultz’s meeting in Germany’s capital Berlin have been shared from the verified account of PM Narendra Modi on 03 May 2022 and none of these pictures are such that whose background I have Nehru’s photo.

On the other hand, the official Twitter handle of PMO India has shared a picture in English by writing ‘Increasing Indo-German cooperation, meeting between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and German Chancellor Olaf Schultz in Berlin.

Expanding India-Germany cooperation.
