Babulal Marandi is the leader of the Bharatiya Janata Party ( BJP ) in Jharkand , India 's eastern state.

A misleading video showing him criticising Prime Minister Narendra Modi resurfaced in social media posts.

The clip was in fact filmed in 2018 when Marandi was not yet a member of the BJP .

The post's caption said it shows Marandi responding to the Indian top court's refusal to launch a probe into allegations that Modi used a multi-billion dollar deal to buy Rafale fighter jets from France to favour one of his backers.
