Rating
Explanation
A piece of information along with a photo of Puthiya Thalaimurai Chief Editor Karthigai Chelvan claiming that he blamed cow for Aavin milk adulteration and not the DMK government, is being circulated on social media.
BJP supporters can be seen sharing the same meme about Karthigai Chelvan. Additionally, his picture was edited with the DMK flag and is being spread.
What is the Truth?
No video or news on Karthigai Chelvan saying the claim can be seen, instead memes and posts are viral. No proofs were associated with it. We checked the Puthiya Thalaimurai channel’s recent news, but no such news was found.
When we reached Puthiya Thalaimurai Channel, “No such news was published. And he did not say so”, they denied it.
Moreover, a Twitter user Sengai Bala has tweeted, “It can be seen on social media about Puthiya Thalaimurai Journalist Karthigai Chelvan speaking about Cow’s milk and DMK. This piece of information is not true”, which is retweeted by Karthigai Chelvan.
Conclusion
A piece of information claiming that Puthiya Thalaimurai Chief Editor Karthigai Chelvan blamed cow for Aavin milk adulteration and not the DMK government, is fake. He did not speak anything on it.
