Kannada media reports ‘Naseer Saab Zindabad’ slogans as ‘Pakistan Zindabad’
Media reports made misleading claims that Naseer Hussain’s supporters chanted ‘Pakistan Zindabad’
In the aftermath of the Rajya Sabha election results in Karnataka, a misleading narrative emerged when several news channels reported that supporters of Congress candidate Naseer Hussain chanted "Pakistan Zindabad" during the celebrations. However, a closer examination of the video footage revealed that the supporters were actually shouting "Naseer Saab Zindabad."
Major Kannada news outlets, including TV9, Suvarna News, Public TV, Vistara News, News First, and Republic Kannada, propagated the false claim that the slogans were in support of Pakistan.
Some reports suggested that a person standing next to Naseer Hussain was the one shouting "Pakistan Zindabad." However, another video showed that the individual was, in fact, chanting "Naseer Saab Zindabad."

Alt News co-founder Muhammad Zubair also shared the video in slow motion on his X account, in which people can be seen chanting ‘Nasir Saab Zindabad’.
