Claim:
PM Modi, in his speech, said, "Show dreams to poor, tell lies, create differences between them and be the king," to BJP workers.
Fact Check:
We found that the viral the clip is part of an original video, which was published on the YouTube channel of BJP on March 21, 2021. The original video's caption says, "PM Shri Narendra Modi addresses public meeting in Bokakhat, Assam".
At around 35:20 timestamp, one can here PM Modi saying, "Show dreams to poor, tell lies, create differences between them and rule." But he later continues saying, "Congress has always used this formula to stay in power."
Hence, in the original video, the Prime Minister was slamming the Congress party and taking a dig at them.
