What @poonam_mahajan was doing with Nirav Modi in London?
And what the hell Nirav Modi was doing standing with the Prince? Because Modi govt was not able to locate NiMo till the telegraph reporter found him out.
What’s cooking in this govt? pic.twitter.com/yzmcw4lMkc

While looking for this picture’s original date we found an article published on evrythingexperiential.business.in & The Hindu in the year 2017.
After reading these articles we came to know that in November 2017, an elephant parade was held in Delhi at British High Commissioner’s residence. This was attended by Prince Charles and many other great personalities. This event was supported by Nirav Modi.
The PNB scam came to light in 2018. It is clear that Poonam Mahajan didn’t meet Nirav Modi in the near past, and this photo is indeed trying to mislead people by indicating the nearness of their meeting and Nirav Modi’s proximity to the leader and her party.
