FACT CHECK
When NewsMobile fact-checked the above post, we found it to be FAKE.
On putting keywords such as ‘Lal Krishna Advani’, ‘BJP’, ‘Water Kiosk’, ‘PM Modi’ through a Google search, we didn’t find any reliable source to confirm the news.
Moreover, such demand by LK Advani would have been national news but none of the news organisation or news agency covered anything close to this.
Hence, in conclusion, it is clear that the viral quote attributed to LK Advani is FAKE.
