Claim
The CJP claimed 22 million followers, but at most 2,200 people attended the Jantar Mantar protest, and about half of them were content creators/YouTubers.
“उन्होंने कहा कि हमारे 22 मिलियन फॉलोअर्स हैं। आपको पता है कितने दर्शक आए थे? कुछ लोगों ने मुझे बताया कि अधिकतम 2,200 लोग आए थे, जिनमें से लगभग 50% कंटेंट क्रिएटर थे।”▶ Watch source segment
Rationale
Central assertion — a claimed 22M online following versus a small physical turnout heavily populated by content creators — is supported. The stated '2,200' is an 'at most' upper bound consistent with reported turnout ('fewer than 2,000'); the ~50% content-creator share is directionally supported by 'significant portion' reporting though not precisely sourced, hence moderate confidence.
