Did Mauritius Welcome PM Modi with ‘Mahangai Dayan’ Song? Know the Truth!

A viral video claiming PM Modi was welcomed in Mauritius with the song "Mahangai Daayan" has been exposed as manipulated, sparking questions about the spread of misinformation.

Supported by

A video circulating on social media claimed that during Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to Mauritius, a song from the Bollywood movie Peepli Live titled “Mahangai Daayan” (translated as “Inflation Witch”) was sung as part of the welcome ceremony. The video suggested that this was a subtle critique of inflation under Modi’s leadership.

Claim

The claim states that PM Modi was welcomed in Mauritius with the song “Mahangai Daayan,” implying dissatisfaction with inflation during his tenure.

Fact

The video in question has been found to be edited. The original footage of PM Modi’s visit to Mauritius does not feature the song “Mahangai Daayan.” Instead, the actual video shows a traditional cultural performance without any political undertones. The misleading clip was altered to include the song as background audio.

Credible fact-checking sources, including BOOM Live, confirm that this is an instance of manipulated content.

Conclusion

This claim falls under the category of Manipulated Content, as genuine footage from PM Modi’s visit was altered to mislead viewers by adding unrelated audio.
