False notice offers money to Muslims going to India to vote against 'fascist groups'

A recent claim has been circulating on social media, stating that the "Association of Sunni Muslims" based in Dubai is offering financial assistance to Muslims in Karnataka and other states to travel and vote for the Congress party in the ongoing Lok Sabha elections. However, upon further investigation, it has been found that this claim is false and there is no evidence of such an association.

The claim originated from a circular that was allegedly issued by the "Association of Sunni Muslims" and shared on various social media platforms. The circular stated that the association is providing full financial support for Muslims to travel and vote in order to defeat "fascist forces" and bring the Congress party back to power. However, upon checking the archived version of the tweet, it was discovered that the claim was fake.

In fact, the address mentioned in the circular led to the Consulate General of Pakistan in Dubai, and a search for the "Association of Sunni Muslims" did not yield any results. It was also found that the three mobile numbers mentioned in the letter as points of contact were not related to the association. One number was registered under a company that sells coffee machines, while the other two have yet to respond to inquiries.

Upon reaching out to the company, they stated that they have no connection to the association mentioned in the letter and have nothing to do with the matter. This further confirms that the claim is false. It is important to note that this is not the first time that fake news has been circulated in order to influence voters.

In conclusion, it has been confirmed that the claim of the "Association of Sunni Muslims" offering financial support to Muslim voters is false.
