Fact Check: Edited video goes VIRAL as PM disrespecting national anthem

A viral clip claimed to show Prime Minister Narendra Modi disrespecting the national anthem, but India Today Fact Check found the footage was edited. The original videos from June 20 and 21, 2025, of Modi's event in Siwan, Bihar, feature a woman announcing his arrival and no anthem. Official livestreams and reports confirm no anthem was played and no credible evidence of disrespect during the visit.
