In the opening days of 2025, a year-old video of Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar announcing his departure from a political alliance resurfaced on social media, dressed in the language of breaking news. The footage was real, the words were his, but the moment had already passed — January 2024, not January 2025. India TV's fact-checkers traced the clip back to its origin through reverse image search and archival records, reminding us that truth is not only a matter of what was said, but of when, and why, and in what world.
