What is the Actual Truth About this Incident? : Fact
The truth is that these assertions are unfounded and fraudulent. Chhote Lal Rajbhar was reportedly watching over the veggies sown in his field. Tanveer Hashmi, the villager, was moving through the planted crop in the meantime. He was assaulted and beaten up when he stopped him. The misbehaving teens broke into Pritam Rajbhar’s home and started attacking his family. Following a brawl between the two groups, several people suffered injuries including Chhote Lal, Meena Devi, Suvachni, Rajgudi, Priti, and Arun Rajbhar. On the other side, there were injuries to Raja, Monu, Qadir, Iqrar, Imran, and others. In this situation, the police have filed a complaint, and their investigation is still underway. It has nothing to do with hate crimes based on caste. We visited livehindustan.com, which published an article on this incident on April 13, 2024 with the headline “Fighting between two parties in Pakhanpura, a dozen injured”.
The official account of @ghazipurpolice tweeted “In connection with the above matter, a case has been registered under the relevant section at the concerned police station and legal action is being taken as per rules.” on April 14, 2024.

Intent:
Propagandists are circulating sensitive videos with false claims to set their caste-based propaganda. A sensitive video that shows a group of injured women lying on the ground has been shared, claiming that they were seriously injured when the miscreants entered the house of this Dalit family and attacked them in a village in Ghazipur. These assertions are unfounded and fraudulent, that much is true. Chhote Lal Rajbhar, it was said, was watching over the veggies that had been planted in his field. Villager Tanveer Hashmi was walking through the planted crop in the meantime. He was attacked and battered when he stopped him. Unruly youngsters attacked Pritam Rajbhar’s family members when they arrived at his home. Arun Rajbhar, Meena Devi, Suvachni, Rajgudi, Priti, and Chhote Lal were among those injured in the altercation that broke out between the two groups. It was the other side that wounded Raja, Monu, Qadir, Iqrar, Imran, and others. An ongoing investigation is underway, and the police have filed a case in this regard. It is unrelated to caste-based hate crime.
Conclusion:
Claim : A video of a number of injured women lying on the ground has gone viral, allegedly demonstrating their significant injuries from the miscreants’ attack on the Dalit family in a Ghazipur village.
Fact : According to reports, Chhote Lal Rajbhar was guarding the vegetables sown in his field. Meanwhile, Tanveer Hashmi of the village was passing through the planted crop. When he stopped him, he was abused and beaten up. The unruly youths came to the house of Pritam Rajbhar and attacked his family members. Nothing to do with caste-based hate crime.
