A Delhi court on Tuesday ordered the police to file a first information report against Bharatiya Janata Party spokesperson Sambit Patra for posting a doctored video that showed Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal supporting the contentious farm laws, ANI reported.

Aam Aadmi Party MLA Atishi had moved the court stating that the police had refused to file a first information report on the matter.

Patra had posted the video in a tweet on January 30, but had subsequently deleted it.

Co-founder of fact-checking website Alt News Mohammed Zubair on Tuesday posted an archived version of the tweet.
