How did we find out the truth?: We checked Uddhav Thackeray's official Facebook page for recent • Thackeray was speaking at an event organised in Andheri, Mumbai with the north Indian community. • He starts talking about how he considers everyone who calls India their motherland his brother. • From 32:12 timestamp, he starts to talk about Aurangzeb. He says, "This happened about three or four years ago, maybe you would have forgotten or maybe you wouldn't have even read about this. One of our soldiers was in Kashmir and he was going home to meet his family for a holiday when terrorists kidnapped him and killed him. After a few days, his body parts were found somewhere. Was he ours or not? He sacrificed his life for our country. If I say that he was my brother, you will ask me about his name as his name was Aurangzeb. He might be from the Muslim community but he sacrificed his life for our country so doesn't that make him our brother? He was indeed our brother." A similar misleading claim about Thackeray calling "Aurangzeb a martyr" had gone viral in 2022. You can read our fact-check What happened with Aurangzeb?: Rifleman Aurangzeb belonged to 4 Jammu and Kashmir Light Infantry and was posted at Shadimarg camp, Shopian. • He was kidnapped and later murdered by militants in Pulwama on 14 June 2018.

NEW DELHI (AP) — Narendra Modi rose from his chair and walked briskly towards the podium to deliver another nighttime address to the nation. It was expected the speech would include a rare message of interfaith harmony in the country where religious tensions have risen under his rule. The Indian prime minister was speaking from the historic Mughal-era Red Fort in New Delhi, and the event marked the 400th birth anniversary celebrations of Guru Tegh Bahadur, the ninth Sikh guru who is remembered for championing religious freedoms for all. READ MORE: India’s Muslims mark ‘painful’ Eid al-Fitr amid a rise in attacks against the religious minority The occasion and the venue, in many ways, were appropriate. Instead, Modi chose the April event to turn back the clock and remind people of India’s most despised Muslim ruler who has been dead for more than 300 years. “Aurangzeb severed many heads, but he could not shake our faith,” Modi said during his address. His invocation of the 17th century Mughal emperor was not a mere blip. Aurangzeb Alamgir remained buried deep in the annals of India’s complex history. The country’s modern rulers are now resurrecting him as a brutal oppressor of Hindus and a rallying cry for Hindu nationalists who believe India must be salvaged from the taint of the so-called Muslim invaders. As “For today’s Hindu nationalists, Aurangzeb is a dog whistle for hating all Indian Muslims,” said Audrey Truschke, historian and author of the book “Aurangzeb: The Man...
