A picture of Congress President Rahul Gandhi is being shared widely and has gone viral on social media.
In the picture, the Congress leader can be seen holding a placard that says,” सत्ता पाने के लिए मुझे हज़ारो लोगो की जान लेनी पड़ी तो भी मै लूंगा | देश बर्बाद हो जाए चलेगा पर मुझे सत्ता चाहिए | नहीं तो मोदी मुझे बर्बाद कर देगा | ना हिन्दू , ना मुस्लिम, सिर्फ सत्ता ”

(Translation- I can kill thousands of people to be in power. It doesn’t matter if the country is destroyed, I just want to be in power. If that doesn’t happen Modi will destroy me. No Hindu, no Muslim, only power)
FACT CHECK
When we fact-checked the picture, we found out that it was fake.
On putting the image through Reverse Image Search, we came across a tweet by Congress’ official Twitter handle after they released their Manifesto for 2019 Lok Sabha polls.
आज मैंने कांग्रेस पार्टी का 2019 लोकसभा चुनाव के लिए घोषणा पत्र जारी किया।
कांग्रेस का यह ‘जन आवाज’ घोषणा पत्र, हिंदुस्तान के लाखों-करोड़ों युवाओं,किसानों और महिलाओं की भावनाओं और समस्याओं को आवाज देने की कोशिश है।
पूरा घोषणा पत्र आप यहां पड़ सकते हैं: https://t.co/R6Epqu9LRK pic.twitter.com/8gPALhNpoi
