Claim: The 2024 Congress manifesto states that if they form the government, they will restore Article 370, repeal the CAA, the New Education Policy, anti-conversion laws, the NSA, and the UAPA, they will remove the death penalty, withdraw from QUAD and I2U2, and eliminate all nuclear weapons from the country.
Fact-check: This video doesn't talk about the Congress manifesto for the 2024 Lok Sabha elections; instead, it discusses the CPI(M) manifesto - FACTLY
Verdict: the congress manifesto for the 2024 lok sabha elections does not mention the repeal of the caa, anti-conversion laws, the nsa, or the uapa. however, senior congress leader and former union finance minister chidambaram stated that they will repeal the caa once the i.n.d.i.a bloc comes to power, even though it is not explicitly mentioned in its manifesto. the congress manifesto also does not mention the removal of the death penalty or the elimination of nuclear weapons from india. the congress party stated that they will amend the new education policy after consultation with the states. while the congress party stated that they will restore the statehood of jammu and kashmir, it does not explicitly mention its plans to restore article 370. notably, all the claims mentioned in the viral post are from the cpi's 2024 lok sabha elections manifesto. hence, the claim made in the post is misleading.
