Fact Check: Did BJP's Hyderabad Pick Madhavi Latha Say "I Am Not A Woman?"

A video of actress turned politician Madhavi Latha where she says "I am not a woman," during an interview, is cropped and is being shared with a false claim that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) candidate from Hyderabad said she is not a woman. BOOM found that the video has been cropped and is being shared out of context to make the false claim. In the original interview, Ms Latha was in fact stating that she is not just a woman but Shakti (divine feminine force) herself.

Ms Latha, an actress by profession was announced by the BJP as their candidate in Hyderabad, Telangana against sitting MP Asaduddin Owaisi of the All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM). In a recent campaign event, Ms Latha was seen gesturing firing an arrow towards a mosque which she later claimed was aimed towards the sky to mark the Hindu festival of Ram Navami.
