This was also posted by several Facebook users<\/a> including by Facebook page ‘ModiNama<\/a>‘ with a following of 3.5 million users. The video gained over lakh views since it was posted on December 4. In past, ModiNama<\/a> and Akash RSS<\/a> have shared misinformation.<\/p>\n

Old video from US<\/h4>\n

Searching a line from the Hindi slogan heard in the video ‘\u0917\u0932\u0940 \u0917\u0932\u0940 \u092e\u0947\u0902 \u0936\u094b\u0930 \u0939\u0948 \u092d\u093e\u0930\u0924 \u092e\u093e\u0924\u093e \u091a\u094b\u0930 \u0939\u0948’ on Facebook, led us to the viral video posted by Himanshu Shukla<\/a> (archived link<\/a>) and Facebook page ‘Rohit Sardana Fans Club<\/a>‘ in 2018.<\/p>\n

We performed another keyword search after translating the slogan in Punjabi and found that Facebook user Hardeep Singh Khalsa<\/a> had uploaded a higher resolution video of the same incident. At the 15-second mark, we can see that a protestor’s t-shirt reads ‘San Francisco’.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

At the 37-second mark, a black building with ‘Proper Hotel’ written can be spotted. As per Google Maps, this hotel is on 34 McAlister Lane<\/a> in San Francisco.<\/p>\n

The following images show a visual comparison between stills from the 2018 video by Hardeep Singh Khalsa<\/a> and stills from Google Maps.<\/p>\n

Thus, a 2018 clip of a pro-Khalistan rally in San Francisco, US was falsely linked with the ongoing farmers’ protest in India. On November 30<\/a>, Alt News debunked a similar claim where a 2019 video of UK-based pro-Khalistan gathering was linked with the recent protest.<\/p>\n
