'Misleading, Malicious': MEA Fact-Checks Reports Claiming Several Leaders 'Fell Ill' After BRICS Summit
India hosted the 18th BRICS Summit on September 12-13 in New Delhi under the theme "Building for Resilience, Innovation, Cooperation and Sustainability”
The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) on Thursday issued a caution against false reports claiming that several world leaders reportedly “fell ill" after attending the 18th BRICS Summit in India.
The Fact Check unit of the MEA tagged a post by the US-based prediction market platform, Polymarket, which posted a picture of South African President Cyril Ramaphosa, claiming, “Multiple world leaders have reportedly fallen ill after attending BRICS summit in India."
