A video of US President Donald Trump is going viral on social media. In the video, Trump is seen accusing the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) of inciting riots in Arunachal Pradesh and promoting differences between Tani tribes.
Boom found in his investigation that this video is deepfack. In this, all the discrepancies were found which are usually in AI -borne deepch content. Apart from this, AI detection tools also confirmed that the video is deepfack.
According to a report by The New Indian Express, people of the Christian community are agitating against the Arunachal Pradesh Religion Freedom Act (APFra) 1978. It has been reported in the report that on 6 March 2025, thousands of Christians had demonstrated a peaceful demonstration in the capital Itanagar demanding cancellation of it.
In fact, Arunachal Pradesh Religion Freedom Act, 1978 forces prohibits conversion of force. However, this Act never came into force.
In this regard, the statement of Arunachal Pradesh Chief Minister Pema Khandu has also come out. He has said that the state government will form a committee of members of various religious groups and know their views before preparing the rules of APFra, 1978.
In this video of about three minutes, Donald Trump is reportedly seen saying that some people in the Donie Polo community have received money from the RSS to brainwash so that followers of local Doni-Pola can go against their Christian Tani brothers and they can be used against APFra.
Further, Trump also says that the people of the Dony Polo community are selling their identity and faith to the RSS for political objectives, promoting the struggle among Christian Tani people.
He also urges to identify those who took money to help the RSS to divide the Tani people. Trump can be heard calling out of the true followers of Doni Polo religion, who did not take money from the RSS, to unite and remove these effects from the state.
Sharing this video Facebook, a user targeted the BJP and wrote, ‘Now RSS is also attacking Trump. These are constantly challenging Modi ji by being attacked by BJP people. There has been a pole in the drums playing the sting.
