On August 10, 2026, BJP MP Giriraj Singh shared a photograph of Congress MP Rahul Gandhi on a boat, sparking a wave of speculation on social media. Avi Dandiya, a user on X, claimed that the image was taken at Lake Roberts in Texas, identifying the individuals accompanying Gandhi. According to Dandiya, the child beside him was Aryaman, the son of his friend Ravi, and the woman next to the child was Ravi's wife, Shabnam.
Dandiya tweeted, "This picture is of Lake Roberts, Texas. The child sitting next to me is Aryaman, the son of my friend Ravi. The woman sitting next to him is Ravi's wife Shabnam. And something @girirajsinghbjpji, now you can find out whether this is correct or not." The claim was also endorsed by Saurav Das, a Co-convenor of the Cockroach Janta Party, who denounced the BJP leader's inquiry as "cheap, gutter-level tactics" that involved "snooping into other people's private lives" and creating controversy from unverified speculation.
Singh had initially shared the photograph on X, asking Gandhi about the location, time, and people in the image. Das accused the BJP leader of employing baseless attacks and criticized his "gutter mentality." However, the location and identities claimed by Dandiya could not be independently verified.
