# Fact Check: Sunita Williams Not Joining CJP Protest

New Delhi: A video of Indian-origin former NASA astronaut Sunita Williams is circulating rapidly on social media, with false claims suggesting she has joined the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) protest at Jantar Mantar.

The short clip, which shows Williams speaking about youth empowerment, is being shared with captions like "Even NASA stands with Abhijeet Dipke! Sunita Williams joins CJP."

The Truth

Fact-checkers have confirmed that the video is completely unrelated to the CJP or the current protests in India. The footage is actually from a 2013 address Williams gave to students at an educational summit.

While the CJP has garnered massive support from various sectors of society and international media, the claim regarding Sunita Williams is a deepfake or miscontextualized video designed to go viral.

Supporters are urged to rely on official CJP channels for updates regarding celebrity and international endorsements.
