  • A video of Canadian Member of Parliament (MP) Chandra Arya is being circulated to claim that it shows him speaking in Kannada after announcing that he will be running for the country's Prime Minister position. Who shared it?: TV9 Network executive editor Nabila Jamal shared the clip with a similar claim. Along with other social media users, Business Today's official Facebook handle too shared it. Is this claim true?: No, the claim is misleading. The viral speech dates back to May 2022, when Arya had spoken in Kannada (his mother tongue) in the Canadian Parliament. How did we find that out?: On performing a keyword search on YouTube using the words "chandra arya speech kannada", we found the full-version uploaded on the official channel of Hindustan Times. The video was published on 20 May 2022 with a title that said, "Viral: India-born MP Chandra Arya's Kannada speech in Canadian Parliament stuns netizens." News report: A Times of India report said that Chandrakanth "Chandra" Arya, who serves as an MP in the Canadian House of Commons, delivered his speech in his mother tongue — Kannada. It said that Arya belonged to Tumakuru's Sila, which is around 120 kilometres from Bengaluru. Other sources: Team WebQoof found similar visuals posted on the official X account of Arya, which he shared on 20 May 2022. Its caption said, "I spoke in my mother tongue (first language) Kannada in Canadian parliament. This beautiful language has long history and is spoken by about 50 million people. This is the first time Kannada is spoken in any parliament in the world outside of India." Conclusion: It is evident that the video is old and unrelated to his nomination.
