When the rally was passing through a Muslim-majority area, people from the Muslim community began stone-pelting. They claimed that inflammatory comments were made by Hindus participating in the rally thus, sparking the tension. However, the district administration refuted claims of inflammatory sloganeering.<\/p>\n<p>In the backdrop of this, a 25-second video is being widely shared on social media where a huge crowd with saffron flags can be seen. People are claiming that this video is from Ujjain where Hindus gathered in a show of unity a day after the stone-pelting incident. <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.vn\/btuTD\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">(Archive link)<\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"hi\">\u0915\u0932 \u091c\u0939\u093e <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/%E0%A4%AA%E0%A4%A5%E0%A4%B0%E0%A4%BE%E0%A4%B5?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#\u092a\u0925\u0930\u093e\u0935<\/a> \u0915\u093f\u092f\u093e \u0917\u092f\u093e \u0925\u093e <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/%E0%A4%89%E0%A4%9C%E0%A5%8D%E0%A4%9C%E0%A5%88%E0%A4%A8?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#\u0909\u091c\u094d\u091c\u0948\u0928<\/a> \u092e\u0947\u201d<br \/>\u092f\u0947 \u0906\u091c \u0915\u093e <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/%E0%A4%A6%E0%A5%83%E0%A4%B6%E0%A5%8D%E0%A4%AF?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#\u0926\u0943\u0936\u094d\u092f<\/a> \u0939\u0948 \u092f\u0947 <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/%E0%A4%B9%E0%A4%BF%E0%A4%A8%E0%A5%8D%E0%A4%A6%E0%A5%82%E0%A4%93%E0%A4%82?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#\u0939\u093f\u0928\u094d\u0926\u0942\u0913\u0902<\/a> \u0915\u0940 <img src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/13.0.1\/72x72\/1f4aa.png\" alt=\"?\" class=\"wp-smiley\" style=\"height: 1em; max-height: 1em;\" \/> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/QHKiBvLrWh\">pic.twitter.com\/QHKiBvLrWh<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 \u0938\u0941\u0928\u0940\u0924\u093e \u0939\u093f\u0928\u094d\u0926\u0942 (@Sunitaa101) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Sunitaa101\/status\/1343129700311285760?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 27, 2020<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Similarly, many Facebook users have shared the video with identical captions suggesting that it is from Ujjain.<\/p>\n<p class=\"no-wrap-image\">\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.radiofree.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/ss-fb-1.jpg\" width=\"744\" height=\"840\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>Old video from Karnataka<\/h4>\n<p>We did a reverse image search on multiple keyframes of the viral video and found a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=AwnbaaONci8&amp;ab_channel=AbhishekDange\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Youtube video<\/a> uploaded on April 13, 2019.
