Summary

An image circulated on social media claiming to show the crowd at the ‘Chalo Dilli’ rally held at Ramlila Maidan in New Delhi on 1 November. The Quint’s fact-check found the image to be AI-generated: reverse image search returned no credible sources, Hive Moderation flagged it as 99.9% likely AI, Sightengine indicated it was very likely AI-generated, and SynthID Detector detected a SynthID watermark linked to OpenAI tools, leading to the conclusion that the image is not an authentic photo from the rally.
