A video purporting to be from Azamgarh, Uttar Pradesh, has gone viral, featuring a man from a minority community using inappropriate language and making offensive remarks about India.
@manojak82118538 made the same claim in a twiiter post that a Muslim made objectionable remarks about India while using abusive language in Azamgarh, UP.
What is the Actual Truth About this Incident? : Fact
In actuality, this video is from Jaipur East in Rajasthan. It has nothing to do with Azamgarh in Uttar Pradesh. The claim is absolutely misleading.
The official account of @azamgarhpolice tweeted “This video is not related to Azamgarh district. Hence this post is false and misleading, remove it immediately otherwise legal action will be taken. The above video is related to #जयपुर_राजस्थान . FIR No. 42/2024 is registered at Motidungri police station (Jaipur East).@jaipur_police” on April 8, 2024.
यह वीडियो जनपद आजमगढ़ से सम्बंधित नहीं है। अतः यह पोस्ट झूठी व भ्रामक हैं, इसको तत्काल हटाएं अन्यथा विधिक कार्यवाही सुनिश्चित की जाएगी।
