Truth
The image being circulated wrongly claims that the person on the ground is the former INC President. A Google Reverse image search of keyframes lead to a video that was posted by NDTV back in 2012 showing Robert Vadra who is Priyanka Gandhi’s husband and Rahul Gandhi’s brother-in-law faint at a golf course in Gurugram. The video can be found here and a screenshot of the same is follows:
The Times of India and India Today also ran reports on the same story. The articles can be found here and here respectively. A screenshot of the same is as follows:
