Claim
Breaking news: the Tripura Congress posted a highly objectionable, abusive post against Hindus from its official social media handle, which has since been deleted; BJP's Amit Malviya has tweeted about it.
“बहुत बड़ी खबर आ रही है। त्रिपुरा कांग्रेस ने एक बेहद विवादित पोस्ट डाला है जिसको डिलीट कर दिया है। कांग्रेस ने किया है हिंदुओं के खिलाफ विवादित पोस्ट... त्रिपुरा कांग्रेस के ऑफिशियल हैंडल से ये ट्वीट ये पोस्ट हुआ है सोशल मीडिया अकाउंट पे।”▶ Watch source segment
Rationale
The central, load-bearing claim is verified: the verified/official social-media handle of the Tripura unit of the Congress did post an abusive, objectionable item against Hindus (Ram Bhakts) around 1 July 2026, per Republic World, on the eve of the 2 July broadcast. Two secondary details in the anchor's framing could not be independently confirmed: (a) that the post was 'since deleted' — Republic reported it was still visible at the time of writing on 1 July, so deletion may have occurred later but is unverified; and (b) that BJP's Amit Malviya tweeted about it — no source located confirms a Malviya post on this specific incident. The medium was Facebook, which the anchor loosely calls a 'tweet.' No mainstream fact-checker (AltNews/BOOM/Factly/Newschecker/PIB) had addressed it as of the broadcast date, and the confirming outlet is partisan, so confidence is moderate; the essential assertion is nonetheless accurate.
