A viral News18 debate clip shows BJP spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia in a kurta while not wearing any pyjama, sparking intense speculation and memes online. Many viewers noted how Gaurav kept adjusting his kurta repeatedly, fueling claims that he joined the live broadcast in only his underwear. Following the speculations, a fact-check confirmed that the footage was indeed genuine and matched the original telecast. Bhatia’s attire overshadowed the entire discussion, with users sharing screenshots to argue their case. While many supporters suggested that the camera angle created an illusion, others dismissed that defense.

Reactions from netizens
Social media users have jumped in on mocking the BJP spokesperson, with journalist @ManishPDA posting the viral clip on X with the caption:

Other users also piled in with their jokes and memes, commenting:
“Forget opposition questions, now the real debate is whether he wore pants or not.”
Another user commented:
“WFH level unlocked: national TV without trousers.”
