A 2024 video circulating online claimed a protest against Delhi’s Chief Electoral Officer, Gyanesh Kumar, at Jantar Mantar, but lighthousejournalism.com has debunked the claim as a misattributed clip.
A video that went viral in 2024 on social media claimed to show a protest against Delhi’s Chief Electoral Officer, Gyanesh Kumar, at the historic Jantar Mantar site. The clip, which features a crowd chanting slogans, was widely shared as evidence of a recent demonstration. However, a fact‑checking report from lighthousejournalism.com examined the footage and found that it does not depict a recent protest. The report concluded that the video is misattributed and likely originates from a different event. As of now, there is no record of a protest targeting Gyanesh Kumar at Jantar Mantar in recent times.
