== Clarification ==

The claim on the post shared on social media was that Chitrashi Rawat, seen wearing ripped jeans, was the daughter of Tirath Singh Rawat. Well, she is! Her father's name is Tirath Singh Rawat but he is not the Chief Minister of Uttarakhand. He is simply the chief minister's namesake.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.indiatoday.in/india/story/father-name-tirath-singh-rawat-chak-de-india-chitrashi-rawat-viral-ripped-jeans-photo-1781167-2021-03-19|title=Father's name Tirath Rawat, no relation with U'khand CM: Actor Chitrashi Rawat on viral ripped jeans photo|date= 19 March 2021|publisher=indiatoday.in}}</ref>
