Maithili Thakur hit out at fake statements praising PM Narendra Modi that were circulated using her name and photos online. Denying the claims, she wrote, "Stop posting fake statements in my name and misusing my photos." She called the campaign a desperate attempt to defame her.
BJP MLA and folk singer Maithili Thakur strongly reacted to fake statements about PM Narendra Modi being circulated in her name on social media, alleging that her photo was being misused to spread the posts. One viral claim falsely alleged that she said Mahatma Gandhi used to play with Modi in his lap.
Another fake quote claimed she said, "Mother used to tell me that when you were in my womb, voices came from my stomach saying 'Modi, Modi, Modi.' That is why today I am in the BJP. Modi ji is God." However, there is no record of Maithili Thakur making these statements.

Taking to her X (formerly Twitter), the 25-year-old singer wrote, "It’s deeply disappointing to see such desperate PR stunts being used to defame me. Stop posting fake statements in my name and misusing my photos, how low are you willing to go? I didn’t want to react but enough is enough."
