Claim
The CJP's follower counts are fraudulent bot-driven numbers: 8.9 million followers in Palestine, 8.9 million in Malaysia and Indonesia, and 8.9 million from a Kansas town whose population is barely 100,000.
“इसी वजह से फिलिस्तीन में उनके 89 लाख फॉलोअर्स हैं... मलेशिया और इंडोनेशिया में उनकी संख्या 8.9 मिलियन थी। कैनसस के एक शहर में, जिसकी आबादी मुश्किल से 1 लाख है, वहां 89 लाख लोग थे।”▶ Watch source segment
Rationale
The specific figures — 8.9 million followers each from Palestine, from Malaysia/Indonesia, and from one Kansas town — are fabricated and mathematically impossible (three sets of 8.9M would exceed the total 22M) and are contradicted by the 94%-Indian demographic evidence. The Kansas item derives from a Topeka anecdote (population ~126,000), not a real 8.9M figure.
Evidence
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cockroach_Janta_Party Bot allegation was that '49% of CJP followers are from Pakistan and only 9% India' (later rebutted with 94% Indian); mentions anecdotal 'distant towns like tiny Topeka, Kansas,' but no 8.9-million foreign-city figures. pending audit
