Fact Check-

We started our investigation with a keyword and reverse image search on Google and the results led us to a report published on the Indian Express on 17 December 2024 with a caption, “Day after Palestine, Priyanka Gandhi’s handbag message expresses solidarity with Bangladesh minorities”.

Congress party general secretary Priyanka Gandhi had raised the issue of Hindus being attacked in Bangladesh in Parliament. While speaking, she stressed that, “The government should raise the issue of atrocities against minorities, both Hindus and Christians, in Bangladesh. It should discuss this with the Bangladesh government and support those who are in pain,” 

She was joined by several Congress MPs, and together they staged a protest in the Parliament premises. The MPs, holding handbags emblazoned with the message “Stand with minorities of Bangladesh,” raised slogans and demanded justice.
