FACT CHECK

NewsMobile fact-checked the above picture and we found that the claim made with the picture is FAKE.
On putting the picture through Reverse Image Search, we found the picture on Getty website and its description confirmed that the man touching Sonia Gandhi’s feet was a Congress representative at Indian Youth Congress Convention.

Further, we also found another picture from the same event in which former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh was present and he was wearing a blue turban, while the man touching Gandhi’s feet was wearing a saffron turban.

Hence, this proves that the above claim is FAKE.
