A set of photos, both of which show Congress leader and Leader of the Opposition (LoP) Rahul Gandhi, have gone viral on social media, where users have claimed that one person in the
background of each photo is an actor. THE CLAIM: Sharing photos of Gandhi with porters, also known as _coolies_, and with Delhi University students, social media users have highlighted men
in both photos, claiming that they show the same person, who is an actor hired to be present in Gandhi's videos. We also received a query to verify this claim on our WhatsApp tipline.
_(ARCHIVED OF MORE CLAIMS ON SOCIAL MEDIA CAN BE SEEN HERE, HERE, HERE, AND HERE.)_ BUT...?: The claim is false.
