• Madhya Pradesh CM explained fan's air movement, not production.
• Critics mocked CM's remarks, questioned leadership on social media.
• Supporters defended explanation as basic physics, citing CM's qualifications.

A video of Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav explaining how a fan works during a government school programme on artificial intelligence has sparked a debate on social media, with critics mocking his remarks and supporters defending them as a simple explanation of basic physics.

In the video, Yadav is heard discussing whether a fan actually “gives” air. He explains that the air is already present in the room and that the fan does not produce it but instead moves or disturbs it.

“The fan is moving the air. It is not giving air. The air is already there. The fan only disturbs it. The longer it disturbs it, the longer you will feel the air. There is no air inside the fan,” Yadav said.

“पंखा हवा दे नहीं रहा है

पंखा हवा को डिस्टर्ब कर रहा है”

The remarks quickly went viral on social media, drawing reactions from both critics and supporters.

Critics Mock ‘Fan’ Remark

CJP member Sourav Das criticised Yadav over the video, writing, “Our futures are doomed if we have such people running our country. Meet the Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh.”

Congress leader Supriya Shrinate also took a dig at Yadav, quoting his remark and writing, “The fan is not giving air. The fan is disturbing the air,” followed by a reference to Yadav as “BJP’s Einstein”.

Supporters Defend Mohan Yadav

Several social media users, however, defended the Chief Minister, arguing that his explanation was scientifically correct.

One user said Yadav was explaining basic physics and that a fan does not create air but moves and circulates the air already present in a room.

Another user questioned what was wrong with Yadav’s statement, saying it was a “proven fact” that a fan circulates existing air rather than generating it.

The user also highlighted Yadav’s educational qualifications, including a B.Sc, LLB, MA in Political Science, MBA and Ph.D. from Vikram University, while comparing them with those of his critic.

The video has since turned a routine school programme into a wider online debate, with users split between those mocking Yadav’s choice of words and those defending his explanation as an accessible description of how a fan works.
