Fact Check: Viral Video Falsely Shows Gyanendra Shahi Confessing to Drunken Remarks and Taking Money From KP Oli

Kathmandu. A video of Rastriya Prajatantra Party (RPP) politician and Member of Parliament Gyan Bahadur (Gyanendra) Shahi is currently circulating widely across social media platforms. Shahi has been in the spotlight over remarks made during a Facebook Live while on a visit to Japan. Amid this, a TikTok video has surfaced claiming that the MP later admitted he had made those remarks while under the influence of alcohol.

A fact-check by TechPana's Fact Check Desk found that the claim is misleading. The viral video was created by manipulating the original footage using AI technology to spread misinformation.
