A video showing a burqa-clad woman repeatedly assaulting a man in a public market has been shared with a misleading claim that a Hindu man harassed a Muslim woman and was subsequently beaten by her in Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh. However, the truth is that the man has been identified as Adnan, son of the late Abdul Mabud, confirming that he is not from the Hindu community.
Sharing the video on X (Formerly Twitter), @Karishma_voice wrote, โAs soon as the burqa was seen, the Asaram DNA of the hateful blind devotee got awakened. Anyway, that sister was also awake, so she was properly rewarded for her action.โ Later, she deleted the post.
