Parliamentary debate revolving around a supposedly lucrative Quantum AI Investment platform featuring Rahul Gandhi and Nirmala Sitharaman, proven to be a deepfake video
In a recent development, a video circulating on social media platforms, purportedly showing a discussion between Indian political leaders Rahul Gandhi and Nirmala Sitharaman about a highly profitable Quantum AI investment platform, has been debunked as a deepfake.
The video, uploaded on the Sansad TV YouTube channel, has been found to contain AI-generated or deepfake content, according to AI detection tools such as Hive, Resemble AI, and Hiya. The audio in the video was flagged as highly likely to be AI-generated, and several segments of artificially generated audio were detected.
The full transcript of Rahul Gandhi's speech during the discussion on the Motion of Thanks on the President's Address in the Lok Sabha on 01 July 2024, can be found at [specific URL 1] and [specific URL 2]. In his speech, Rahul Gandhi did not mention anything related to a Quantum AI investment platform.
Similarly, the full transcript of Nirmala Sitharaman's speech can be seen, and in her entire speech, she did not mention anything about a Quantum AI investment platform. The video clip of Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman shown in the deepfake video actually shows her addressing the Rajya Sabha during the Monsoon Session 2023 on 26 July 2023. The other video clip of Nirmala Sitharaman actually shows her speaking on the PM Internship Scheme App in Parliament House, New Delhi, on 17 March 2025. This video was shared on the official YouTube channel of the Office of the Finance Minister on the same date.
It is important to note that neither Rahul Gandhi nor Nirmala Sitharaman have ever endorsed or promoted such projects. The link embedded in the viral video redirects users to a jewellery shopping website, confirming it is part of an online scam.
Factly, a reputable fact-checking organisation, has previously debunked numerous deepfake videos featuring prominent personalities that were designed to scam the public. Relevant fact-check articles can be seen here, here, here, and here.
In conclusion, the video showing Rahul Gandhi and Nirmala Sitharaman discussing a Quantum AI investment platform in Parliament is a deepfake, and the public is advised to exercise caution when encountering such content online.
