Fact Check: Fake statement of National Security Advisor Ajit Doval went viral

A screengrab in the name of National Security Advisor Ajit Doval is going viral on the internet.

Further in the screengrab, it is written that “Today, India is suffering from the exact same problem that Israel was suffering from, 5 years ago. There also a crowd of thousands used to gather upon the death of even one terrorist and then they start throwing stones at the Army. The same is happening in India today. To deal with this, Israel had a ‘small meeting’. Mossad Force said that they will solve this problem in just three days. The very next day, Mossad shot only one terrorist at the crossroads in 5-6 different cities. One terrorist was shot at a crossroads. At every intersection of the city, thousands of terrorists started the procession. Mossad only threw three bombs at every procession and there were the dead bodies of thousands of Terrorists. As a result, people in Israel are afraid of forming a crowd today also.

This tactic of Mossad was liked by Russia so much that they have used them many times. Friends, is the time has come that this formula should be applied in India as well?”

Further, a Facebook user Pankaj Singh have shared this screengrab with the caption, “Jai Shree Ram.”
