Many social media users are sharing a video of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s speech, where he can be heard saying, “Mahatma Gandhiji picked up the idea of non-violence from our great religions, from our great teachers. Mahatma Gandhiji picked up the idea of non-violence from ancient Indian philosophy, from Islam.”

Many social media users are sharing this video under different captions.

A user on Twitter writes, “Mahatma Gandhi took the idea of Non-Violence from Islam”: Rahul Gandhi.”
