On Sunday evening, a large picture of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi wielding a sword alongside a Swastika was projected onto the British House of Commons. This bold stunt organized by a UK based anti-Modi protest group – Awaaz- made headlines throughout the world.
Many international media publications alleged that the viral image was photoshopped. However, Amrit Wilson, writer, activist and founder member of Awaaz, confirmed to Roar News that the picture wasn’t photoshopped and infact, it was beamed on the landmark building for 7-8 minutes.
