Explanation
Nagaland’s governor R.N.Ravi was appointed as Tamil Nadu’s new Governor recently. His appointment was welcomed by Tamil Nadu BJP and their followers, but Congress members expressed suspicion toward his appointment.
A 1.15-minute video is viral on social media in this situation, claiming that Tamil Nadu’s newly appointed Governor R.N.Ravi is forced into a car by policemen.
What is the Truth?
Cobra Post and Hindustan Times have published the same video mentioning the incident as ‘UP police arresting a Former IPS officer forcibly on 28th August 2021’, and it was found while searching for the viral video.
The former IPS officer Amitabh Thakur was arrested in his house on 27th August in Lucknow in abetment of a suicide case of a sexually assaulted woman and her friend recently in Delhi.
भूतपूर्व पुलिस के विरुद्ध भाजपा सरकार की पुलिस का अभूतपूर्व कार्य!
भाजपाई राजनीति लोगों के बीच दरार पैदा करके ही जिंदा है. अब भाजपा सरकार के दबाव के कारण पुलिस ही पुलिस के ख़िलाफ़ काम करने पर मजबूर है. एक सेनानिवृत आईपीएस के साथ ऐसा व्यवहार अक्षम्य है. #नहीं_चाहिए_भाजपा pic.twitter.com/o7OG4XRAMy
