Claim: Rahul Gandhi says like how petrol is filled into a tractor or a truck to switch on the Engine, we are filling petrol in the Indian Economy.
Fact-check: Old video of Rahul Gandhi explaining the benefits of the NYAY scheme with a tractor-engine analogy is shared with misleading claims - FACTLY
Verdict: the viral post contains a small portion of rahul gandhi's speech from april 2020, made during a public meeting in chhattisgarh. in the full video, rahul explains the benefits of the congress party's nyay scheme. he says, 'nyay yojana is a way to jumpstart the indian economy; like how petrol is filled into a tractor or truck to start the engine; we are filling petrol in the indian economy; once the petrol goes inside, we will switch it on, the engine starts at once.' the post just uses the portion where he talks about filling fuel into the indian economy to mock about his analogy. hence the claim made in the post is misleading.
