Performing a reverse image search using certain frames of the clip led us to a video posted on a Facebook page titled Ahtasham Kayani. It had been posted on September 14, 2017. Apart from this, the same video had also been posted on another Pakistani Facebook page on September 16, 2017. Boht buri Qismat Becharion Ki 😂😂😂 Posted by Ahtasham Kayani on Thursday, 14 September 2017 Pakistani news channel called Capital TV had also uploaded the video on September 13, 2017, writing “Two women fall into gutter in NA 120”. NA 120 is a constituency for the National Assembly of Pakistan. Therefore, a September 2017 video from Pakistan showing two women falling into a sewage drain is being falsely circulated with claims that it is from Delhi. Users have been sharing this 3-year-old clip targeting Delhi’s chief minister, Arvind Kejriwal. Not too long ago, a video of a boy who fell into a manhole in Pakistan’s Karachi after heavy rains similarly went viral as Mumbai. Apart from this, some more old videos and pictures were shared on social media to target Kejriwal following heavy rains in Delhi. Kinjal Parmar holds a Bachelor of Science in Microbiology.
