evidence: The Facebook post claims that Rajan had warned Rahul about the scam involving Nirav but he was asked to remain silent. [...] Several Facebook users such as Jayaram Ramaswamy, Acharya Sannjiv Sharma, Sahil Mittal and JaiRam Tiwari posted an image of Rajan along with a quote attributing him. The quote reads, "I had warned Rahul Gandhi and P Chidambaram about frauds of Nirav Modi. But they forced me to remain quiet and kept approving the loans till May 2014. Why am I being blamed for the PNB scam now?" Using reverse search or by searching with the keywords "Raghuram Rajan + Rahul Gandhi + Nirav Modi", we could not find any credible report validating the claim. Rather, we came across a news article by News 18 published on March 13, 2018, where Rajan had hit out at social media for a "fake quote". "Social media has a habit of attributing complete rubbish to me," Rajan said.
