FACT CHECK
When NewsMobile fact-checked the above post we found it to be FAKE.
The picture is a screengrab from the video released by Bear Grylls of the trailer of his popular show Man vs Wild in which Prime Minister Narendra Modi is going to feature. The screengrab was further photoshopped with the BJP flag.

In the above FAKE vs REAL collage, it is evident that the BJP scarf has been superimposed in the REAL picture using photoshop software.
Moreover, there have been no reports or communication from BJP about Bear Grylls joining the party.
Hence, the viral claim about Bear Grylls joining BJP is FAKE.
