As the fourth phase of polling was underway, Congress IT Cell chief Divya Spandana took to Twitter on 29 April to share a collage of Adolf Hitler and PM Narendra Modi, where both leaders are seen pulling the ears of children.
Spandana's tweet was captioned "What are your thoughts", and had over 1.1 k likes at the time of writing this article.
TRUE OR FALSE?
However, the truth of this photo is that Hitler never did pull the ears of the girl as shown in the picture – it has been photoshopped.
This was pointed out by several persons in response to Spandana's tweet.
MODI AND HITLER HAVE THE SAME SET OF HANDS
Moreover, an earlier investigation into the same set of photos showed that PM Modi's left hand has been made Hitler's hand, and his right hand as Hitler's left.
This collage earlier went viral in July last year, when IPS officer Sanjiv Bhatt tweeted the same photos.
