Claim

Police recovered from accused Avinash Shukla (who kept the register of donations) the largest haul: ₹39,220 in cash, 10,121 US dollars, 169.54 grams of silver-like metal, an 8.14-gram chain, and a 3.44-gram gold ring.

“पुलिस को इसके पास से सबसे ज्यादा ₹39220 नकद बरामद हुए। 10121 अमेरिकी डॉलर इसके पास से मिले हैं... चांदी जैसी 169.54 ग्राम धातु बरामद हुई है... 8.14 ग्राम की एक चैन बरामद हुई है... एक सोने की अंगूठी भी मिली है। वजन 3.44 ग्राम।”

Rationale

Central assertion (Shukla had the largest haul) is true, but the specific stated figures are contradicted: actual cash was ₹20.39 lakh (not ₹39,220) and US dollars were 1,121 (not 10,121); silver/gold weights also differ. Contradicted sub-details make it inaccurate.
