A video showing a woman vandalizing a shop in tears stating that her husband cheated on her is being shared with a false communal claim that a Hindu woman married a Muslim man who cheated on her by not revealing that he was already married.
The fact-checking page of Press Information Bureau (PIB) took to Twitter to fact-check Pachauri’s claims by saying that, “This claim is #Fake. India's imports from China decreased by 27.63% whereas India's exports to China increased by 27% during April-August”.
Pachauri had gotten his facts mixed up because many news reports had already reported the decrease in import rates by 27.63%. The sources which Pachauri used to make these claims are unknown, however, they are highly false.
Even after getting his misinformation fact-checked, Pachauri did not delete his tweet but quoted the original misleading tweet saying that a government functionary has corrected him that it is not the imports that increased by 27% but the exports. He also added that India has tensions with China in the LAC even though the trades have been increasing.
