Claim: Photo-op of PM Modi reading books, a newspaper in these times of COVID-19 pandemic.
Fact-check: Old image shared as a photo-op by Modi during the COVID pandemic - FACTLY
Verdict: the same image is featured in a listicle dated 14 september 2013 and the image is available on the internet at least since 2011. the description of this image reads 'gujarat chief minister on the lawns of his palatial home in gandhinagar'. thus the image is many years old. hence the claim made in the post is false.
