Sehwag shares doctored video of Pakistan fan destroying TV set after his team loses to India
Fact-checker Zubair shares original video
New Delhi: Former Indian Cricketer and opener Virender Sehwag on Sunday shared a doctored video of a fan destroying his TV set in frustration. Sehwag on his social media handles shared the video claiming that the video was of a Pakistani fan who was breaking his TV set after India defeated Pakistan on Sunday at the MCG in the T20 WC 2022 encounter.
In the video, it was shown that the fan was watching the final ball of Ind vs Pak match of Sunday which ended in a dramatic finish with the match hanging in balance till the last ball before Ravichandran Ashwin scored the winning runs after a brilliant match-winning knock of Virat Kohli.
Sehwag in his post captioned the video, “Relax Padosi , it’s only a game. Hamaare yahan Deepawali hai toh pataakhe phod rahe hain aur aap bevajah TV phod rahe hain Nahin yaar, TV ka kya kasoor.” (Relax neighbors it’s only a game. We are bursting firecrackers to celebrate Diwali, and you guys are breaking TV for no reason. What is the fault of TV) Sehwag wrote with a tinge of sarcasm.
Replying to the 17-minute video clip shared by Sehwag, fact-checker, and co-founder of AltNews Mohammed Zubair shared the original clip and which shows a man watching a football match on TV before destroying the TV set in frustration.
The man in the video is evidently frustrated with his TV set turning off repeatedly at the key moment before he loses his cool and destroys the TV set.
Zubair, also with a tinge of Sarcasm shared the video with the caption “Full video. Last three overs.”
Relax Padosi , it’s only a game.

Notices seeking CEC's removal refer to Rahul's dissent note, incidents of voter-list manipulation
New Delhi (PTI): Notices seeking a motion for the removal of Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Gyanesh Kumar flag issues ranging from the appointment process to his public attack on Rahul Gandhi and instances of alleged manipulation of votes in recent elections, an opposition leader said on Monday.
The notices, submitted in both Houses of Parliament on Friday, seek a motion for Kumar's removal from the CEC's post, as opposition MPs have cried foul over the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of the electoral rolls and raised concerns over the alleged manipulation of voters' lists on multiple occasions.
The process to remove the CEC is similar to that for the removal of a Supreme Court or high court judge, meaning an impeachment can be effected only on the ground of "proven misbehaviour or incapacity".
According to the opposition leader, the around-10-page-long notices refer to a dissent note submitted by Gandhi in February 2025, when Kumar was picked for the post. Gandhi, the leader of opposition in the Lok Sabha, is a member of the panel that appoints the CEC, along with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah.

In his dissent note, the LoP had said, "It is both disrespectful and discourteous for the PM and HM to have made a midnight decision to select the new CEC, when the very composition of the committee and the process is being challenged in the Supreme Court and is due to be heard in less than forty-eight hours."
The notices also mention the CEC's public ultimatum to Gandhi from a press conference in August 2025. Amid allegations of "vote theft" by the opposition, a combative Kumar had asked the LoP to either apologise or back his claims with a signed affidavit, as required under electoral rules.
The notices also refer to allegations of manipulations in the voters' list raised by opposition parties in Karnataka's Aland and Mahadevapura.
The notices have been signed by around 130 members in the Lok Sabha and 60 in the Rajya Sabha. The signatories include leaders of the INDIA bloc parties, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and some independent MPs.
According to sources, the notices list seven charges against Kumar, including "partisan and discriminatory conduct in office", "deliberate obstruction of investigation of electoral fraud" and "mass disenfranchisement".
The opposition parties have accused the CEC of aiding the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on several occasions, especially with the SIR exercise, which they have alleged aims at helping the ruling party at the Centre.
If the motion is admitted in both Houses, a committee will be constituted jointly by the Lok Sabha speaker and the Rajya Sabha chairman.
The committee will consist of the chief justice of India (CJI) or a Supreme Court judge, the chief justice of one of the 25 high courts and a "distinguished jurist".
The proceedings of the committee are like any court proceedings where witnesses and the accused are cross-examined.
The CEC, too, will get a chance to speak before the panel.
According to rules, once the committee submits its report, it will be tabled in the House and discussions will commence for impeachment.
A motion to remove a judge or, in this case, the CEC, will have to be passed by both Houses.
When the House discusses the motion, Kumar will have the right to defend himself standing at the entrance of the House chamber.
