Explanation

The northeast monsoon in Tamil Nadu has given heavy rainfall and people in Chennai are struggling a lot as the stagnant water from roads enters their houses. This can be seen from the videos on social media and news media.

Indiaglitz page’s tweet claiming, “Varuna Bhagavan has punished the people of Chennai who voted for DMK with heavy rains and flood. They deserve it – Arjun Sampath”, is viral on social media.

What is the Truth?

No recent interviews or posts about Arjun Sampath were found on Indiaglitz Youtube and Twitter page.

An astrological video published dated November 5 on the Indiaglitz channel has been edited with Arjun Sampath related news.

The claim that Arjun Sampath said Varuna Bhagavan has punished the people of Chennai who voted for DMK with heavy rains and floods, is edited and fake.
