New Delhi (Vishvas News). A video of Congress leader Supriya Shrinate celebrating is going viral on social media, with claims that it was taken after the Delhi Assembly elections. The post alleges that Supriya Shrinate celebrated the Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP’s) victory and Aam Aadmi Party’s (AAP’s) defeat in the Delhi assembly elections.
However, Vishvas News, in its investigation, found this claim to be false. The video has nothing to do with the Delhi elections and is from eight months old during the Lok Sabha elections when they celebrated their party winning 99 seats.
What is going viral?
Sharing the viral video, the Facebook user wrote in the caption, “Despite the Congress being reduced to zero for the third consecutive time, this happiness of Congress leader Supriya Shrinet after the election results says it all. And it also clearly explains why in the last ten years, all opposition leaders have been raided by ED, CBI except the Congress leaders.”
Investigation
To verify the authenticity of the viral video, we conducted a Google search using relevant keywords. Our investigation led us to a video on a YouTube channel named A1TV, uploaded on June 5, 2024. According to the information available, the video was taken after the Lok Sabha election results.
During our investigation, we found the viral video posted on the official YouTube channel of Live Hindustan on June 5, 2024. According to the information provided, Congress secured 99 seats in the Lok Sabha elections. Congress spokesperson Supriya Shrinet became emotional due to this victory. She visited the social media team’s office and celebrated with them.
Taking the investigation forward, we analysed Supriya Shrinet’s official social media accounts and found the viral video on her official X account, uploaded on June 4, 2025. The caption read, “After spending the whole day at the Congress headquarters today, when the social media team reached the office, they were excited. Congress workers have worked very hard, the performance of the social media team was excellent. We are warriors of Rahul Gandhi and it is natural to get emotional today seeing his truth and courage winning.”
For further clarification, we contacted Uttar Pradesh Congress spokesperson Abhimanyu Tyagi. He confirmed that the viral claim is false and the video of Supriya Shrinet is not recent but old. He further stated that the old video is being misrepresented and circulated with a misleading claim.
Finally, we scanned the account of the user who shared the video with the false claim and found that the user identifies as a resident of Rajasthan and shares posts related to a particular ideology.
Conclusion: Vishvas News, in its investigation, found that the claim about the Congress leader Supriya Shrinet celebrating after the Delhi elections is false. The video has no connection with the Delhi elections but is eight months old during the Lok Sabha elections when she was celebrating Congress winning 99 seats.
Claim Review : Congress leader Supriya Shrinet celebrated with joy the defeat of AAP in Delhi elections.
