A self-taught social media maverick, Saurabh realised the power of social media early on and began following and analysing false narratives and ‘fake news’ even before he entered the field of fact-checking professionally. He is fascinated with the visual medium, technology and politics, and at Newschecker, where he leads social media strategy, he is a jack of all trades. With a burning desire to uncover the truth behind events that capture people's minds and make sense of the facts in the noisy world of social media, he fact checks misinformation in Hindi and English at Newschecker.
Believing in the notion of 'live and let live’, Preeti feels it's important to counter and check misinformation and prevent people from falling for propaganda, hoaxes, and fake information.

Claim
सोशल मीडिया पर यह दावा किया जा रहा है कि फोर्ब्स की विश्व के सर्वाधिक शिक्षित नेताओं की सूची में राहुल गांधी सातवें क्रमांक पर हैं.
भारतीय चुनाव आयोग की वेबसाइट पर मौजूद राहुल गांधी द्वारा साल 2019 के लोकसभा चुनाव के लिए दायर हलफनामे के अनुसार उन्होंने कैंब्रिज यूनिवर्सिटी से साल 1995 में M.Phil की डिग्री हासिल की थी.
इस प्रकार हमारी पड़ताल में यह बात साफ हो जाती है कि फोर्ब्स की विश्व के सर्वाधिक शिक्षित नेताओं की सूची में राहुल गांधी को सातवें क्रमांक पर बताए जाने के नाम पर शेयर किया जा रहा यह दावा गलत है. असल में फोर्ब्स पत्रिका विश्व के सर्वाधिक शिक्षित नेताओं की ऐसी कोई सूची प्रकाशित ही नहीं करता है.
Result: False
