FACT CHECK

When NewsMobile fact-checked the above picture, we found that it is a photoshopped picture.

When we put the image through a reverse image search, we found the original picture which was tweeted by PM Modi’s official twitter handle.

The picture was from Kashi Vishwanath Temple when PM Modi laid the foundation stone for the Vishwanath Dham project.

In the Fake vs Real comparison, it is very clear that ‘चौकीदार ही चोर है’ was written using photoshop.

Hence, the viral picture is FAKE.
